Jeremiah 12:16

The Lord's Promise To Israel's Neighbors

¹⁵ And it hath been, after My plucking them out, I turn back, and have pitied them, And I have brought them back, Each to his inheritance, and each to his land. ¹⁶ And it hath come to pass, If they learn well the ways of My people, To swear by My name, 'Jehovah liveth,' As they taught My people to swear by Baal, Then they have been built up in the midst of My people. ¹⁷ And if they do not hearken, Then I have plucked up that nation, Plucking up and destroying, An affirmation of Jehovah!'

As the Lord Lives

In My Name

My People

Take Oaths

Make Sure

Baal

Jehovah
