Jeremiah 30:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Jeremiah 30:8

6 Ask now, and see,
Whether a¹ man is ever in labor with child?
So why do I see every man with his hands on his loins
^aLike a woman in labor,
And all faces turned pale?

7 ^aAlas! For that day is great,
^bSo that none is like it;
And it is the time of Jacob’s trouble,
But he shall be saved out of it.

8 ‘For it shall come to pass in that day,’
Says the Lord of hosts,
‘That I will break his yoke from your neck,
And will burst your bonds;
Foreigners shall no more enslave them.

9 But they shall serve the Lord their God,
And ^aDavid their king,
Whom I will ^braise up for them.

10 ‘Therefore ^ado not fear, O My servant Jacob,’ says the Lord,
‘Nor be dismayed, O Israel;
For behold, I will save you from afar,
And your seed ^bfrom the land of their captivity.
Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet,
And no one shall make him afraid.

11 For I am with ^ayou,’ says the Lord, ‘to save you;
^bThough I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you,
^cYet I will not make a complete end of you.
But I will correct you ^din justice,
And will not let you go altogether unpunished.’

12 “For thus says the Lord:
^a‘Your affliction is incurable,
Your wound is severe.

13 There is no one to plead your cause,
That you may be bound up;
^aYou have no healing medicines.
