Jeremiah 50:19-21
International Standard Version
19 I’ll bring Israel back to his pasture. He will graze on Carmel, on Bashan, on Mt. Ephraim, and on Gilead—his hunger will be satisfied. 20 In those days and at that time,’ declares the Lord, ‘the iniquity of Israel will be searched for, but there will be none; and the sin of Judah, but none will be found, because I’ll pardon those I leave as a remnant.’”

21 “Go up against the land of Merathaim[a]
and the inhabitants of Pekod.[b]
Kill them with swords, and completely destroy them,”
declares the Lord,
“and do everything that I’ve commanded you.
