Jeremiah 31:3-5
Contemporary English Version
The Lord Will Rebuild Israel
3 Some time ago, the Lord appeared to me[a] and told me to say:
Israel, I will always love you;
that's why I've been so patient
and kind.
4 You are precious to me,
and so I will rebuild
your nation.
Once again you will dance for joy
and play your tambourines.
5 You will plant vineyards
on the hills of Samaria
and enjoy the grapes.
