Jeremiah 12:14-17
New American Standard Bible
14 This is what the Lord says concerning all My (A)wicked neighbors who (B)do harm to the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel: “Behold, I am going to drive them out of their land, and I will (C)drive the house of Judah out from among them. 15 And it will come about that after I have driven them out, I will (D)again have compassion on them; and I will (E)bring them back, 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 the Lord lives,’ just 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 do not listen, then I will (J)drive out that nation, drive it out and destroy it,” declares the Lord.

Jeremiah 12:14-17
Holman Christian Standard Bible
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.
