1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord.
2 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: “Write down on a scroll all the words that I have spoken to you,
3 for the days are certainly coming” — this is the Lord’s declaration — “when I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel and Judah” — the Lord’s declaration. “I will restore them to the land I gave to their ancestors and they will possess it.”
4 These are the words the Lord spoke to Israel and Judah.
5 Yes, this is what the Lord says:We have heard a cry of terror,of dread — there is no peace.
