Jeremiah 32:36-38

Expanded Bible

³⁶ “You are saying, ‘Because of ·war [^Lsword], ·hunger [famine], and ·terrible diseases [plague; pestilence], the city will be handed over to the king of Babylon.’ But the Lord, the God of Israel, says about this city [^CJerusalem]: ³⁷ I ·forced them [drove them out] from their land, because I was furious and very angry with them. But soon I will gather them from all the lands where I ·forced them to go [drove them out], and I will ·bring them back [restore them] to this place, where they may live in ·safety [confidence]. ³⁸ They [^Cpeople of Israel and Judah] will be my people, and I will be their God.
