Jeremiah 31:9-11

Young's Literal Translation

⁹ With weeping they come in, And with supplications I bring them, I cause them to go unto streams of waters, In a right way -- they stumble not in it, For I have been to Israel for a father, And Ephraim -- My first-born [is] he.

¹⁰ Hear a word of Jehovah, O nations, And declare ye among isles afar off, and say: He who is scattering Israel doth gather him, And hath kept him as a shepherd [doth] his flock,

¹¹ For Jehovah hath ransomed Jacob, And redeemed him from a hand stronger than he.
