Jeremiah 31:1-6 - God's Relationship With His People
1 At that time, Declareth Yahweh, I will become a God, to all the families of Israel; And, they, shall become my people.
2 Thus, saith Yahweh, - There hath found favour in the desert people escaped from the sword, - I must go to cause him, even Israel, to rest. 3 From afar, Yahweh hath appeared unto me, Yea with an age-abiding love, have I loved thee, For this cause, have I prolonged to thee lovingkindness. 4 Again, will I build thee and thou shalt be built, thou virgin, Israel, - Again, shalt thou deck thyself with thy timbrels, And go forth in the dance of them that make merry: 5 Again, shalt thou plant vineyards in the mountains of Samaria, The planters have planted, and have laid open the vineyards, 6 For it is a day the watchmen have proclaimed throughout the hill country of Ephraim, - Arise ye and let us go up to Zion, unto Yahweh our God.
