Jeremiah 12:16

The Lord's Promise To Israel's Neighbors

¹⁵ And when I have rooted them out, I will be at one with them again, and will have mercy upon them: and bring them again, every man to his own heritage, and into his land. ¹⁶ And if they, namely that trouble my people, will learn the ways of them, to swear by my name, 'The LORD liveth' - like as they learned my people to swear by Baal - then shall they be reckoned among my people. ¹⁷ But if they will not obey, then will I root out the same folk, and destroy them, sayeth the LORD."

As the Lord Lives

In My Name

My People

Take Oaths

Make Sure

Baal

Jehovah
