Yeremia 13:25

13:25 This is your fate,

the destiny to which I have appointed you,

because you have forgotten me

and have trusted in false gods.

Yeremia 31:16

31:16 The Lord says to her, ¹ 

“Stop crying! Do not shed any more tears! ² 

For your heartfelt repentance ³  will be rewarded.

Your children will return from the land of the enemy.

I, the Lord, affirm it! ⁴ 

[31:16]  ¹ tn The words “to her” are not in the text but are implicit from the context. They are supplied in the translation for clarity.

[31:16]  ² tn Heb “Refrain your voice from crying and your eyes from tears.”

[31:16]  ³ tn Heb “your work.” Contextually her “work” refers to her weeping and refusing to be comforted, that is, signs of genuine repentance (v. 15).

[31:16]  ⁴ tn Heb “Oracle of the Lord.”
