Jeremiah 33:1-9

New American Standard Bible

Restoration Promised

33 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still ^(A)confined in the courtyard of the guard, saying, ² “This is what ^(B)the Lord says, He who made ^[a]the earth, the Lord who formed it to create it, He whose name is the ^(C)Lord: ³ ‘^(D)Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you ^(E)great and ^[b]mighty things, ^(F)which you do not know.’ ⁴ For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel says concerning the ^(G)houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah which have been torn down to make a defense against the ^(H)assault ramps and the sword: ⁵ ‘While they are coming to ^(I)fight the Chaldeans and to fill ^[c]their houses with the bodies of people whom I have struck down in My anger and My wrath, and I have ^(J)hidden My face from this city because of all their wickedness: ⁶ Behold, I am going to bring to it ^(K)healing and a remedy, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them an ^(L)abundance of peace and truth. ⁷ And I will ^(M)restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and will ^(N)rebuild them as they were at first. ⁸ And I will ^(O)cleanse them from all their wrongdoing by which they have sinned against Me, and I will forgive all their wrongdoings by which they have sinned against Me and revolted against Me. ^9 [d]It will be to Me a ^(P)name of joy, praise, and glory before ^(Q)all the nations of the earth, which will hear of all the ^(R)good that I do for them, and they will be ^(S)frightened and tremble because of all the good and all the peace that I make for it.’
