"Now therefore the LORD God of Israel says the following concerning this city of which you say, 'It has been ^(C1)handed over to the king of Babylon by sword, by famine, and by plague':

"Behold, I am going to ^(C1)gather them out of all the lands to which I have driven them in My anger, in My wrath, and in great indignation; and I will bring them back to this place and ^(C2)have them live in safety.

"They shall be ^(C1)My people, and I will be their God;

and I will ^(C1)give them one heart and one way, so that they will fear Me always, for their own ^(C2)good and for the good of their children after them.

"I will make an ^(C1)everlasting covenant with them that I will ^(C2)not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will ^(C3)put the fear of Me in their hearts, so that they will not turn away from Me.

"I will ^(C1)rejoice over them to do them good and will ^(F1)faithfully ^(C2)plant them in this land with ^(C3)all My heart and all My soul.
