1Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
2Thus saith Jehovah that doeth it, Jehovah that formeth it to establish it; Jehovah is his name:
3Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and will show thee great things, and difficult, which thou knowest not.
4For thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down [to make a defence] against the mounds and against the sword;
5while [men] come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city:
6Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them; and I will reveal unto them abundance of peace and truth.
7And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
