Jeremiah 31:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

‘I was kind to the Israelites
    when they travelled in the desert.
I helped those that the enemy had not killed,
    as they looked for a place where they could rest.’
³ At that time long ago,
    the Lord showed himself to his people.
He said, ‘I have always loved you
    and I always will love you.
My faithful love for you continues for ever.
⁴ My special people of Israel,
    I will make you strong again.
You will be so happy that you dance,
    as people make music with tambourines.
