Jeremiah 46:26-28
Christian Standard Bible
26 I will hand them over to those who intend to take their lives(A)—to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and his officers. But after this,(B) Egypt[a] will be inhabited again as in ancient times.”
This is the Lord’s declaration.
Reassurance for Israel
27 But you, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid,(C)
and do not be discouraged, Israel,
for without fail I will save you from far away,
and your descendants from the land of their captivity!
Jacob will return and have calm and quiet
with no one to frighten him.
28 And you, my servant Jacob, do not be afraid—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
for I will be with you.(D)
I will bring destruction on all the nations
where I have banished you,
but I will not bring destruction on you.
I will discipline you with justice,
and I will by no means leave you unpunished.(E)
