Jeremiah 16:17

Punishment Of Exile

¹⁶ “Behold (listen carefully), I will send for many fishermen,” says the Lord, “and they will fish for them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every mountain and from every hill and out of the clefts of the rocks. ¹⁷ For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their wickedness concealed from My eyes. ¹⁸ I will first doubly repay and punish them for their wickedness and their sin [before I return them to their land], because they have profaned My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable idols and with their abominations.”
