Jeremiah 31:1-3

Complete Jewish Bible

“The people escaping the sword
found favor in the desert —
I have brought Isra’el to its rest.”

^2 (3) From a distance Adonai appeared to me, [saying,]
“I love you with an everlasting love;
this is why in my grace I draw you to me.
^3 (4) Once again, I will build you; you will be rebuilt,
virgin of Isra’el.
Once again, equipped with your tambourines,
you will go out and dance with the merrymakers.
