32:33. And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when
I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would
not hearken to receive instruction.
32:34. And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is
called upon, to defile it.
32:35. And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the
valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters
to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart,
that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.
32:36. And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this
city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the
king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
32:37. Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which
I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great
indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause
them to dwell securely.
32:38. And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
32:39. And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear
me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children
after them.
32:40. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, and will not
cease to do them good: and I will give my fear in their heart, that they
may not revolt from me.
32:41. And I will rejoice over them, when I shall do them good: and I
will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all
my soul.
32:42. For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all
this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak
to them.
32:43. And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that
it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is
given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
32:44. Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and
sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round
about Jerusalem, in the cities of Juda, and in the cities on the
mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are
towards the south: for I will bring back their captivity, saith the
Lord.
Jeremias Chapter 33
God promises reduction from captivity, and other blessings: especially
the coming of Christ, whose reign in his church shall be glorious and
perpetual.
33:1. And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the second time, while
he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying:
33:2. Thus saith the Lord, who will do, and will form it, and prepare
it, the Lord is his name.
33:3. Cry to me and I will hear thee: and I will shew thee great things,
and sure things which thou knowest not.
33:4. For thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to the houses of this
city, and to the houses of the king of Juda, which are destroyed, and to
the bulwarks, and to the sword.
33:5. Of them that come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them
with the dead bodies of the men whom I have slain in my wrath, and in my
indignation, hiding my face from this city because of all their
wickedness.
33:6. Behold I will close their wounds and give them health, and I will
cure them: and I will reveal to them the prayer of peace and truth.
The prayer of peace... That is, the peace and welfare which they pray
for.
