Jeremiah 50:3-5
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 A nation from the north advances against it,
making the land desolate
So that no one can live there;
human beings and animals have fled.(A)
4 In those days and at that time—oracle of the Lord—
Israelite and Judahite shall come together,
Weeping as they come, to seek the Lord, their God;(B)
5 They shall ask for Zion,
seeking out the way.
“Come, let us join ourselves to the Lord
in an everlasting covenant, never to be forgotten.”(C)
