Jeremiah 16:14-18
World English Bible
14 “Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that it will no more be said, ‘As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;’ 15 but, ‘As Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them.’ I will bring them again into their land that I gave to their fathers.
16 “Behold, I will send for many fishermen,” says Yahweh, “and they will fish them up. Afterward I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every mountain, from every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks. 17 For my eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from my face. Their iniquity isn’t concealed from my eyes. 18 First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.”

God Will Restore Them
14 “(A)Therefore behold, days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when it will no longer be said, ‘As the Lord lives, who (B)brought up the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,’ 15 but, ‘As the Lord lives, who brought up the sons of Israel from the (C)land of the north and from all the lands where He had banished them.’ For I will restore them to their own land which I gave to their fathers.
16 “Behold, I am going to send for many (D)fishermen,” declares the Lord, “and they will fish for them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they will (E)hunt them (F)from every mountain and every hill and from the clefts of the rocks. 17 (G)For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, (H)nor is their wrongdoing concealed from My eyes. 18 I will first repay them (I)double for their wrongdoing and their sin, because they have (J)defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their (K)detestable idols and their abominations.”
