Jeremiah 12:14-17

English Standard Version

¹⁴ Thus says the Lord concerning all ^(A)my evil neighbors ^(B)who touch the heritage that ^(C)I have given my people Israel to inherit: “Behold, I will pluck them up from their land, and I will pluck up the house of Judah from among them. ¹⁵ And after I have plucked them up, I will again have compassion on them, ^(D)and I will bring them again each to his heritage and each to his land. ¹⁶ And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, ^(E)to swear by my name, ‘As the Lord lives,’ even as they taught my people to swear by Baal, ^(F)then they shall be built up in the midst of my people. ^17 (G)But if any nation will not listen, then I will utterly pluck it up and destroy it, declares the Lord.”
