Jeremiah 30:4-8
English Standard Version
4 These are the words that the Lord spoke concerning (A)Israel and Judah:
5 “Thus says the Lord:
We have heard a cry of panic,
of terror, and no peace.
6 Ask now, and see,
can a man bear a child?
(B)Why then do I see every man
with his hands on his stomach (C)like a woman in labor?
(D)Why has every face turned pale?
7 Alas! (E)That day is so great
(F)there is none like it;
it is a time of distress for Jacob;
yet he shall be saved out of it.
8 “And it shall come to pass in that day, declares the Lord of hosts, that I will (G)break his (H)yoke from off your neck, and I will (I)burst your bonds, (J)and foreigners shall no more make a servant of him.[a]
