14 This is what the Lord says: “Concerning all My evil neighbors who attack the inheritance that I bequeathed to My people, Israel, I am about to uproot them from their land, and I will uproot the house of Judah from them.
15 After I have uprooted them, I will once again have compassion on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land.
16 If they will diligently learn the ways of My people — to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ just as they taught My people to swear by Baal — they will be built up among My people.
17 However, if they will not obey, then I will uproot and destroy that nation.” This is the Lord’s declaration.
