Jeremiah 31:9-11

Revised Standard Version

⁹With weeping they shall come,
    and with consolations^[a] I will lead them back,
I will make them walk by brooks of water,
    in a straight path in which they shall not stumble;
for I am a father to Israel,
    and E′phraim is my first-born.

¹⁰“Hear the word of the Lord, O nations,
    and declare it in the coastlands afar off;
say, ‘He who scattered Israel will gather him,
    and will keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.’
¹¹For the Lord has ransomed Jacob,
    and has redeemed him from hands too strong for him.
