Compare all
14 Thus says the Lord: “Against all My evil neighbors who atouch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit—behold, I will bpluck them out of their land and pluck out the house of Judah from among them.  
15 aThen it shall be, after I have plucked them out, that I will return and have compassion on them band bring them back, everyone to his heritage and everyone to his land.  
16 And it shall be, if they will learn carefully the ways of My people, ato swear by My name, ‘As the Lord lives,’ as they taught My people to swear by Baal, then they shall be bestablished in the midst of My people.  
17 But if they do not aobey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation,” says the Lord.

Jeremiah 12:16

If - If they will leave their idolatries, and learn to worship me, and swear by my name the Lord liveth, that is, pay that homage which they owe to the Divine being to me, the living and true God. Then - They shall have a portion among my people, which was eminently fulfilled in the conversion of the Gentiles.
