Jeremiah 31:22-24
Living Bible
22 How long will you vacillate, O wayward daughter? For the Lord will cause something new and different to happen—Israel will search for God.[a]
23 The Lord, the God of Israel, says: When I bring them back again, they shall say in Judah and her cities, “The Lord bless you, O center of righteousness, O holy hill!” 24 And city dwellers and farmers and shepherds alike shall live together in peace and happiness.

22 How long will you wander,(A)
unfaithful(B) Daughter Israel?
The Lord will create a new thing(C) on earth—
the woman will return to[a](D) the man.”
