Jeremiah 31:10
Compare all
8 Behold, I will bring them afrom the north country,
And bgather them from the ends of the earth,
Among them the blind and the lame,
The woman with child
And the one who labors with child, together;
A great throng shall return there. 
9 aThey shall come with weeping,
And with supplications I will lead them.
I will cause them to walk bby the rivers of waters,
In a straight way in which they shall not stumble;
For I am a Father to Israel,
And Ephraim is My cfirstborn. 
10 “Hear the word of the Lord, O nations,
And declare it in the1 isles afar off, and say,
‘He who scattered Israel awill gather him,
And keep him as a shepherd does his flock.’ 
11 For athe Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And ransomed him bfrom the hand of one stronger than he. 
12 Therefore they shall come and sing in athe height of Zion,
Streaming to bthe goodness of the Lord—
For wheat and new wine and oil,
For the young of the flock and the herd;
Their souls shall be like a cwell-watered garden,
dAnd they shall sorrow no more at all. 
13 “Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance,
And the young men and the old, together;
For I will turn their mourning to joy,
Will comfort them,
And make them rejoice rather than sorrow.
14 I will1 satiate the soul of the priests with abundance,
And My people shall be satisfied with My goodness, says the Lord.” 

Mercy on Ephraim

15 Thus says the Lord:
a“A voice was heard in bRamah,
Lamentation and bitter cweeping,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted for her children,
Because dthey are no more.” 
16 Thus says the Lord:
“Refrain your voice from aweeping,
And your eyes from tears;
For your work shall be rewarded, says the Lord,
And they shall come back from the land of the enemy.

Jeremiah 31:10

The tidings of God's interposition in behalf of Israel will arrest the attention of even the uttermost Gentile nations.

He that scattered will gather—He who scattered knows where to find Israel; He who smote can also heal.

keep—not only will gather, but keep safely to the end (John 13:1; John 17:11).

shepherd— (Isaiah 40:11; Ezekiel 34:12-14).
