THE SURROUNDING PASSAGE

Jeremiah 30:21 in context

Jeremiah 30:18–24

The LORD says:

“Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents,

and have compassion on his dwelling places.

The city will be built on its own hill,

and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.

Thanksgiving will proceed out of them

with the voice of those who make merry.

I will multiply them,

and they will not be few;

I will also glorify them,

and they will not be small.

Their children also will be as before,

and their congregation will be established before me.

I will punish all who oppress them.

Selected verse

Their prince will be one of them,

and their ruler will proceed from among them.

I will cause him to draw near,

and he will approach me;

for who is he who has had boldness to approach me?” says the LORD.

“You shall be my people,

and I will be your God.

Behold, the LORD’s storm, his wrath, has gone out,

a sweeping storm;

it will burst on the head of the wicked.

The fierce anger of the LORD will not return until he has accomplished,

and until he has performed the intentions of his heart.

In the latter days you will understand it.”
