Jeremiah 31:20-22
Contemporary English Version
20 People of Israel,
you are my own dear children.
Don't I love you best of all?
Though I often make threats,
I want you to be near me,
so I will have mercy on you.
I, the Lord, have spoken.
21 With rock piles and signposts,
mark the road well,
my dear people.
The road by which you left
by will now lead you home.
22 Will you ever decide
to be faithful?
I will make sure that someday
things will be different,
as different as a woman
protecting a man.[a]
Footnotes
- 31.22 I will make sure … a woman protecting a man: One possible meaning for the difficult Hebrew text.
