Jeremiah 31:22-24
The Voice
22 How long will you drift this way and that,
My renegade daughter?
Take heart—for now the Eternal will do a new thing on the earth:
a woman will surround a man.[a]
23 This is what the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies and God of Israel, has to say:
Eternal One: When I bring them back from exile, people throughout the land and villages of Judah will speak these familiar words:
May the Eternal bless you, home of righteousness,
O sacred mountain!
24 In those days of restoration, farmers and herders all across Judah will live together in peace alongside those who live in the cities.

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.”
