in order to fulfill the Word of Jehovah in the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its sabbaths; all the days of the desolation it kept the sabbath until were fulfilled seventy years.
Yet gleanings shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree; two or three oliveberries in the top of a branch; four or five in the fruitful branches,a statement of Jehovah God of Israel;
For I am with you, a statement of Jehovah, to save you. Though I make a full end among all nations where I have scattered you, yet I will not make a full end with you. But I will correct you with judgment, and I will not leave you free from guilt.
The lion has come up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations has set out. He has left his place to make your land a waste. Your cities will fall into ruins without one living in them.
And My fury and My anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they are for a waste and for a desolation as at this day.
You shall not fear, O Jacob My servant, a statement of Jehovah, for I am with you. For I will make a full end of all the nations there where I have banished you. But I will not make a full end of you, but I will correct you in judgment, and not acquit you and not leave you free of guilt.
Then I will cause the voice of gladness to cease from the streets of Jerusalem, even the voice of joy, and the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride. For the land shall become a waste.
The Lord has cast off His altar; He rejected the holy place. He has delivered the walls of her fortresses into the hand of the enemy. They gave a noise in Jehovah’s house, as a day of meeting.
And it happened when I prophesied, Pelatiah, the son of Benaiah, died. Then I fell on my face and cried with a loud voice and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
For I shall make the land desolate and a waste, and the pride of her strength shall cease. And the heights of Israel shall be a waste that none will go through.
And I will stretch out My hand on them and give the land a to be a desolation even more desolate than the desert toward Diblath, in all their dwelling places. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.
And yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, and not I will hate them, to consume them, to break My covenant with them; for I am Jehovah their God.
Also their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of Jehovah. But all the earth shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy. For He shall make a complete, yea, a speedy end of all those living on the land.
