26 And I will give them into the hand of the seekers of their lives,[a] and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and into the hand of his troops. But afterward[b] it will be inhabited, as in days of old,” declares[c] Yahweh.

27 “But as for you, my servant Jacob, you must not be afraid,
    and Israel, you must not be dismayed,
for look, I am going to save you from far,
    and your offspring from the land of their captivity.
And Jacob will return,
    and he will be quiet,
and he will be at ease,
    and without one who makes him afraid.
28 You must not be afraid, my servant Jacob,” declares[d] Yahweh,
    “for I am with you.
For I will make a complete destruction in all the nations where I scattered you,
    but you I will not make a complete destruction,
though I will chastise you to the measure,
    and I will certainly not leave you unpunished.”
