Jeremiah 30:23-24
Legacy Standard Bible
23 Behold, the (A)storm of Yahweh!
Wrath has gone forth,
A [a]sweeping storm;
It will burst on the head of the wicked.
24 The (B)burning anger of Yahweh will not turn back
Until He has done and until He has established
The intent of His heart;
In the (C)last days you will understand this.

Footnotes
- Jeremiah 30:24 sn Jer 30:23-24 are almost a verbatim repetition of 23:19-20. There the verses were addressed to the people of Jerusalem as a warning that the false prophets had no intimate awareness of the Lord’s plans, which were plans of destruction for wicked Israel, not plans of peace and prosperity. Here they function as further assurance that the Lord will judge the wicked nations oppressing them when he reverses their fortunes and restores them once again to the land as his special people (cf. vv. 18-22).
