36

And now the Lord, the God of Israel, has said of this town, about which you say, It is given into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword and by need of food and by disease:

37

See, I will get them together from all the countries where I have sent them in my wrath and in the heat of my passion and in my bitter feeling; and I will let them come back into this place where they may take their rest safely.

38

And they will be my people, and I will be their God:

39

And I will give them one heart and one way, so that they may go on in the worship of me for ever, for their good and the good of their children after them:

40

And I will make an eternal agreement with them, that I will never give them up, but ever do them good; and I will put the fear of me in their hearts, so that they will not go away from me.

41

And truly, I will take pleasure in doing them good, and all my heart and soul will be given to planting them in this land in good faith.

42

For the Lord has said: As I have made all this great evil come on this people, so I will send on them all the good which I said about them.
