Jeremiah 33:11-13

English Standard Version

^11 (A)the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who sing, as they bring ^(B)thank offerings to the house of the Lord:

^(D)For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the Lord.

¹² “Thus says the Lord of hosts: ^(E)In this place that is waste, without man or beast, and in all of its cities, there shall again be ^(F)habitations of shepherds ^(G)resting their flocks. ^13 (H)In the cities of the hill country, ^(I)in the cities of the Shephelah, ^(J)and in the cities of the Negeb, in the land of Benjamin, ^(K)the places about Jerusalem, ^(L)and in the cities of Judah, ^(M)flocks shall again pass under the hands ^(N)of the one who counts them, says the Lord.
