Dios promete que los cautivos volverán

30 Palabra de Jehová que vino a Jeremías, diciendo: Así habló Jehová Dios de Israel, diciendo: Escríbete en un libro todas las palabras que te he hablado. Porque he aquí que vienen días, dice Jehová, en que haré volver a los cautivos de mi pueblo Israel y Judá, ha dicho Jehová, y los traeré a la tierra que di a sus padres, y la disfrutarán.

Estas, pues, son las palabras que habló Jehová acerca de Israel y de Judá. Porque así ha dicho Jehová: Hemos oído voz de temblor; de espanto, y no de paz. Inquirid ahora, y mirad si el varón da a luz; porque he visto que todo hombre tenía las manos sobre sus lomos, como mujer que está de parto, y se han vuelto pálidos todos los rostros. ¡Ah, cuán grande es aquel día!, tanto, que no hay otro semejante a él; tiempo de angustia para Jacob; pero de ella será librado.

En aquel día, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, yo quebraré su yugo de tu cuello, y romperé tus coyundas, y extranjeros no lo volverán más a poner en servidumbre, sino que servirán a Jehová su Dios y a David su rey, a quien yo les levantaré.

10 Tú, pues, siervo mío Jacob, no temas, dice Jehová, ni te atemorices, Israel; porque he aquí que yo soy el que te salvo de lejos a ti y a tu descendencia de la tierra de cautividad; y Jacob volverá, descansará y vivirá tranquilo, y no habrá quien le espante. 11 Porque yo estoy contigo para salvarte, dice Jehová, y destruiré a todas las naciones entre las cuales te esparcí; pero a ti no te destruiré, sino que te castigaré con justicia; de ninguna manera te dejaré sin castigo.(A)

12 Porque así ha dicho Jehová: Incurable es tu quebrantamiento, y dolorosa tu llaga. 13 No hay quien juzgue tu causa para sanarte; no hay para ti medicamentos eficaces. 14 Todos tus enamorados te olvidaron; no te buscan; porque como hiere un enemigo te herí, con azote de adversario cruel, a causa de la magnitud de tu maldad y de la multitud de tus pecados. 15 ¿Por qué gritas a causa de tu quebrantamiento? Incurable es tu dolor, porque por la grandeza de tu iniquidad y por tus muchos pecados te he hecho esto. 16 Pero serán consumidos todos los que te consumen; y todos tus adversarios, todos irán en cautiverio; hollados serán los que te hollaron, y a todos los que hicieron presa de ti daré en presa. 17 Mas yo haré venir sanidad para ti, y sanaré tus heridas, dice Jehová; porque desechada te llamaron, diciendo: Esta es Sion, de la que nadie se acuerda.

18 Así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo hago volver los cautivos de las tiendas de Jacob, y de sus tiendas tendré misericordia, y la ciudad será edificada sobre su colina, y el templo será asentado según su forma. 19 Y saldrá de ellos acción de gracias, y voz de nación que está en regocijo, y los multiplicaré, y no serán disminuidos; los multiplicaré, y no serán menoscabados. 20 Y serán sus hijos como antes, y su congregación delante de mí será confirmada; y castigaré a todos sus opresores. 21 De ella saldrá su príncipe, y de en medio de ella saldrá su señoreador; y le haré llegar cerca, y él se acercará a mí; porque ¿quién es aquel que se atreve a acercarse a mí? dice Jehová. 22 Y me seréis por pueblo, y yo seré vuestro Dios.

23 He aquí, la tempestad de Jehová sale con furor; la tempestad que se prepara, sobre la cabeza de los impíos reposará. 24 No se calmará el ardor de la ira de Jehová, hasta que haya hecho y cumplido los pensamientos de su corazón; en el fin de los días entenderéis esto.

Liberation from Captivity Promised

30 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says: ‘(A)Write all the words which I have spoken to you in a book. For behold, (B)days are coming,’ declares the Lord, ‘when I will (C)restore the fortunes of My people (D)Israel and Judah.’ The Lord says, ‘I will also (E)bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers, and they shall take possession of it.’”

Now these are the words which the Lord spoke concerning Israel and Judah:

“For this is what the Lord says:

[a]I have heard a sound of (F)terror,
Of fear, and there is no peace.
Ask now, and see
If a male can give birth.
Why do I see every man
With his hands on his waist, (G)as a woman in childbirth?
And why have all faces turned pale?
Woe, for that (H)day is great,
There is (I)none like it;
And it is the time of Jacob’s (J)distress,
Yet he will be (K)saved from it.

‘It shall come about on that day,’ declares the Lord of armies, ‘that I will (L)break his yoke from [b]their necks and will tear to pieces [c]their (M)restraints; and strangers will no longer (N)make [d]them their slaves. But they shall serve the Lord their God and (O)David their king, whom I will raise up for them.

10 And (P)do not fear, Jacob My servant,’ declares the Lord,
‘And do not be dismayed, Israel;
For behold, I am going to save you (Q)from far away,
And your [e]descendants from the land of their captivity.
And Jacob will return and be (R)at peace, without anxiety,
And (S)no one will make him afraid.
11 For (T)I am with you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to save you;
For I will completely (U)destroy all the nations where I have scattered you,
Only I will (V)not destroy you completely.
But I will (W)discipline you fairly
And will by no means leave you unpunished.’

12 “For this is what the Lord says:
‘Your broken limb is irreparable,
And your (X)wound is incurable.
13 There is no one to plead your cause;
No healing for your sore,
(Y)No recovery for you.
14 All your (Z)lovers have forgotten you,
They do not seek you;
For I have (AA)wounded you with the wound of an enemy,
With the (AB)punishment of a (AC)cruel one,
Because your (AD)wrongdoing is great,
And your (AE)sins are numerous.
15 Why do you cry out over your injury?
Your pain is incurable.
Because your wrongdoing is great
And your sins are numerous,
I have done these things to you.
16 Therefore all who (AF)devour you will be devoured;
And all your adversaries, every one of them, (AG)will go into captivity;
And those who plunder you will become plunder,
And all who plunder you I will turn into plunder.
17 For I will [f]restore you to [g](AH)health
And I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares the Lord,
‘Because they have called you an (AI)outcast, saying:
“It is Zion; no one [h]cares for her.”’

Restoration of Jacob

18 “This is what the Lord says:
‘Behold, I will (AJ)restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob
And (AK)have compassion on his dwellings;
And the (AL)city will be rebuilt on its ruins,
And the (AM)palace will stand on its rightful place.
19 From them will come a (AN)song of thanksgiving
And the voices of those who [i](AO)celebrate;
And I will (AP)multiply them and they will not decrease;
I will (AQ)honor them and they will not be insignificant.
20 [j]Their children also will be as before,
And [k]their congregation will be (AR)established before Me;
And I will punish all [l]their oppressors.
21 [m]Their (AS)leader shall be one of them,
And [n]their ruler will come out from [o]their midst;
And I will (AT)bring him near and he shall approach Me;
For [p]who would dare to risk his life to (AU)approach Me?’ declares the Lord.
22 ‘You shall be (AV)My people,
And I will be your God.’”

23 Behold, the (AW)tempest of the Lord!
Wrath has gone forth,
A [q]sweeping tempest;
It will whirl upon the head of the wicked.
24 The (AX)fierce anger of the Lord will not turn back
Until He has performed and accomplished
The intent of His heart.
In the (AY)latter days you will understand this.
