Jeremiah 50:19-21
Good News Translation
19 I will restore the people of Israel to their land. They will eat the food that grows on Mount Carmel and in the region of Bashan, and they will eat all they want of the crops that grow in the territories of Ephraim and Gilead. 20 When that time comes, no sin will be found in Israel and no wickedness in Judah, because I will forgive those people whose lives I have spared. I, the Lord, have spoken.”

New International Version
19 But I will bring(A) Israel back to their own pasture,
and they will graze on Carmel and Bashan;
their appetite will be satisfied(B)
on the hills(C) of Ephraim and Gilead.(D)
20 In those days, at that time,”
declares the Lord,
“search will be made for Israel’s guilt,
but there will be none,(E)
and for the sins(F) of Judah,
but none will be found,
for I will forgive(G) the remnant(H) I spare.
