Jeremiah 50:19-21
The Message
Jeremiah 50:19-21
The Message
18-20 And now this is what God-of-the-Angel-Armies,
the God of Israel, has to say:
“Just watch! I’m bringing doom on the king of Babylon and his land,
the same doom I brought on the king of Assyria.
But Israel I’ll bring home to good pastures.
He’ll graze on the hills of Carmel and Bashan,
On the slopes of Ephraim and Gilead.
He will eat to his heart’s content.
In those days and at that time”—God’s Decree—
“they’ll look high and low for a sign of Israel’s guilt—nothing;
Search nook and cranny for a trace of Judah’s sin—nothing.
These people that I’ve saved will start out with a clean slate.
* * *
21 “Attack Merathaim, land of rebels!
Go after Pekod, country of doom!
Hunt them down. Make a clean sweep.” God’s Decree.
“These are my orders. Do what I tell you.
Jeremiah 50:19-21

Jeremiah 50:19-21
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.
