14 Thus says Yahweh concerning all My (A)evil neighbors who (B)beat at the inheritance with which I have caused My people Israel to inherit, “Behold, I am about to uproot them from their land and will (C)uproot the house of Judah from among them. 15 And it will come about that after I have uprooted them, I will (D)return and have compassion on them; and I will (E)cause them to return, each one to his inheritance and each one to his land. 16 Then if they will really (F)learn the ways of My people, to (G)swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ even as they taught My people to (H)swear by Baal, they will be (I)built up in the midst of My people. 17 But if they will not listen, then I will (J)uproot that nation, uproot and make it perish,” declares Yahweh.

14 This is what the Lord says: “Concerning all My evil neighbors who attack the inheritance that I bequeathed to My people, Israel, I am about to uproot them(A) from their land, and I will uproot the house of Judah from them. 15 After I have uprooted them, I will once again have compassion(B) on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land. 16 If they will diligently learn the ways of My people(C)—to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ just as they taught My people to swear by Baal—they will be built up among My people. 17 However, if they will not obey, then I will uproot and destroy that nation.”(D)

This is the Lord’s declaration.
