Jeremiah 31:8
Compare all
6 For there shall be a day
When the watchmen will cry on Mount Ephraim,
a‘Arise, and let us go up to Zion,
To the Lord our God.’ ” 
7 For thus says the Lord:
a“Sing with gladness for Jacob,
And shout among the chief of the nations;
Proclaim, give praise, and say,
‘O Lord, save Your people,
The remnant of Israel!’ 
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.
