Jeremiah

¹Moreover the Lord’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying, ²“the Lord who does it, the Lord who forms it to establish it—the Lord is his name, says: ³‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’ ⁴For the Lord, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword; ⁵while men come to fight with the Kasdim, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city: ⁶‘Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
