Jeremiah 31:15-17
Easy-to-Read Version
15 This is what the Lord says:
“A sound is heard in Ramah—
bitter crying and great sadness.
Rachel[a] cries for her children,
and she refuses to be comforted,
because her children are gone.”
16 But the Lord says, “Stop crying.
Don’t fill your eyes with tears.
You will be rewarded for your work.”
This message is from the Lord.
“The people of Israel will come back from their enemy’s land.
17 Israel, there is hope for you.”
This message is from the Lord.
“Your children will come back to their own land.
