Jeremiah 11:5Easy To Read Version“I did this to keep the promise that I had made to your ancestors. {\cf2\super [89]} I promised to give them a very fertile land—a land flowing with milk and honey. And you are living in that country today.” See the chapter |
The Lord made a special promise to your ancestors. [81] The Lord promised to give you the land of the Canaanite people, the Hittite people, the Amorite people, the Hivite people, and the Jebusite people. After the Lord leads you to the land filled with many good things, [82] then you must remember this day. You must have a special day of worship on this day during the first month of every year.
Jeremiah said to Hananiah, “Amen! {\cf2\super [220]} I hope the Lord will really do that! I hope the Lord will make the message you preach come true. I hope the Lord will bring the things of the Lord’s temple {\cf2\super [221]} back to this place from Babylon. And I hope the Lord will bring all the people that were forced to leave their homes back to this place.
