A continuing whirlwind;
It will fall violently on the head of the wicked.
24 The fierce anger of the LORD will not return until He has done it,
And until He has performed the intents of His heart.
In the latter days you will consider it.........
Now these are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah.
“For thus says the LORD:
‘We have heard a voice of trembling, Of fear, and not of peace.
Ask now, and see,Whether a man is ever in labor with child?
So why do I see every man with his hands on his loins Like a woman in labor,
And all faces turned pale?
Alas! For that day is great, So that none is like it; And it is the time of Jacob’s trouble,
But he shall be saved out of it.
For it shall come to pass in that day,’ Says the LORD of hosts,
That I will break his yoke from your neck, And will burst your bonds;
Foreigners shall no more enslave them. But they shall serve the LORD their God,
And David their king, Whom I will raise up for them.
10 Therefore do not fear, O My servant Jacob,’ says the LORD,
Nor be dismayed, O Israel; For behold, I will save you from afar,
And your seed from the land of their captivity. Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet,
And no one shall make him afraid. For I am with you,’ says the LORD, ‘to save you;
Though I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you,
Yet I will not make a complete end of you.
But I will correct you in justice,And will not let you go altogether unpunished.’
“For thus says the LORD: ‘ Your affliction is incurable, Your wound is severe.
There is no one to plead your cause,That you may be bound up;
You have no healing medicines. All your lovers have forgotten you;
They do not seek you; For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy,
With the chastisement of a cruel one, For the multitude of your iniquities,
Because your sins have increased. Why do you cry about your affliction?
Your sorrow is incurable. Because of the multitude of your iniquities,
Because your sins have increased,I have done these things to you.
Therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured;
And all your adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity;
Those who plunder you shall become plunder, And all who prey upon you I will make a prey.
For I will restore health to you And heal you of your wounds,’ says the LORD,
Because they called you an outcast saying:“ This is Zion; No one seeks her.”’
Jeremiah 30
