Jeremiah 31:21-23
Expanded Bible
21 “·Fix [L Put up; Erect] the road ·signs [markers].
·Put up signs to show you the way home [L Make guideposts].
·Watch the road [L Set your heart toward the highway].
Pay attention to the road on which you travel.
·People [L Virgin daughter; Young woman] of Israel, ·come home [L return; repent],
·come back to [L return to these] your towns.
22 You are an unfaithful daughter.
How long will you ·wander before you come home [L waver]?
The Lord has ·made [created] something new happen in the land:
A woman will ·go seeking [or protect; or embrace; L surround] a man.”
23 The Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts], the God of Israel, says: “I will again do good things for the people of Judah. At that time the people in the land of Judah and its towns will again use these words: ‘May the Lord bless you, ·home of what is good [L abode of righteousness], holy mountain.’
