Jeremiah 33:8-10

New International Reader's Version

⁸ I will wash from its people all the sins they have committed against me. And I will forgive all the sins they committed when they turned away from me. ⁹ Then this city will bring me fame, joy, praise and honor. All the nations on earth will hear about the good things I do for this city. They will see the great success and peace I give it. Then they will be filled with wonder. And they will tremble with fear.”

¹⁰ The Lord says, “You say about this place, ‘It’s a dry and empty desert. It doesn’t have any people or animals in it.’ The towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem are now deserted. So they do not have any people or animals living in them. But happy sounds will be heard there once more.
