Jeremiah 30-32

God plans to restore Israel after punishment has taken place.

The fierce anger of the Lord will not turn back
 until he fully accomplishes
 the purpose of his heart. 
 In days to come
 you will understand this.  
Jeremiah 30:24

I have love you with an everlasting love;
I have drawn you with loving-kindness
Jeremiah 30:24

See I will bring them from the land of the north
and gather them from the ends of the earth.
Among them will be the blind and the lame,
expectant mothers and women in labor;
a great throng will return.
They will come with weeping;
they will pray as I bring them back.
I will lead them beside streams of water
on a level path where they will not stumble,
because I am Israel's father,
ad Ephraim is my firstborn son.
Jeremiah 31:8-9

After I strayed,
I repented;
after I came to understand,
I beat my breast.
I was ashamed and humiliated
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.
Jeremiah 31:19

"This is the covenant I will make with
 the house of Israel after that time," declares the Lord.
"I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
No longer will a man teach his neighbor,
or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,'
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest," declares the Lord.
"For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more."
Jeremiah 31:33-34
