30:1  The Davar that came to Yirmeyah from Hashem, saying,
30:2  Thus speaketh Hashem Elohei Yisroel, saying, Write thee all the Devarim that I have spoken unto thee in a sefer.
30:3  For, hinei, the days are coming, saith Hashem, that I will bring back from captivity My people Yisroel and Yehudah, saith Hashem; and I will cause them to return to ha’aretz that I gave to their avot, and they shall possess it.
30:4  And these are the Devarim that Hashem spoke concerning Yisroel and concerning Yehudah.
30:5  For thus saith Hashem: We have heard a cry of fear, of pachad (terror), and not of shalom.
30:6  Ask ye now, and see whether a zachar (male) doth travail with child? Why do I see every gever with his hands on his stomach, like a woman in labor, and all faces are turned deadly pale?
30:7  Alas! For gadol hayom, so that none is like it; it is even the Et (Time) of Tzarah l’Ya’akov (Jacob’s Trouble), but he shall be saved out of it.
30:8  For it shall come to pass in that day, saith Hashem Tzva’os, that I will break his yoke from off thy tzavar (neck), and will burst thy bonds, and zarim (foreigners) shall no more make a slave of him;
30:9  But they shall serve Hashem Eloheihem, and Dovid their Melech [i.e. Moshiach], whom I will raise up for them.
30:10  Therefore, fear thou not, O Avdi Ya’akov, saith Hashem; neither be dismayed, O Yisroel; for, hineni, I will save thee from afar, and thy zera from the eretz of their captivity; and Ya’akov shall return, and shall be at rest, and be secure, and none shall make him afraid.
30:11  For I am with thee, saith Hashem, to save thee; though I make a full end of all Goyim where I have scattered thee, yet I will not make a full end of thee; but I will correct thee in mishpat, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
30:12  For thus saith Hashem, Thy bruise is incurable, and thy makkah (blow, wound) is grievous.
30:13  There is none to uphold thy cause, no refu’ot for your wound, no healing for you.
30:14  All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the makkat oyev, with the musar (chastisement) of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine avon; because thy sins were increased.
30:15  Why dost thou cry out over thine affliction? Thy pain is incurable for the multitude of thine avon; because thy chattot were increased, I have done these things unto thee.
30:16  Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that plunder thee shall become plunder, and all that prey upon thee will I give for prey.
30:17  For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy makkot (wounds), saith Hashem; because they called thee a Nidachah (Outcast), saying, This is Tziyon, whom no one careth for.
30:18  Thus saith Hashem; Hineni, I will bring back the captivity of Ya’akov’s ohalim, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the Ir shall be rebuilt upon her own ruins, and the armon (citadel) shall stand on its rightful site.
30:19  And out of them shall proceed todah (thanksgiving) and the voice of them that rejoice; and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also honor them, and they shall not be disdained.
30:20  Their banim also shall be as formerly, and their Edah (Congregation) shall be established before Me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
30:21  And their Adir (Prince, Leader) shall be one of their own, and their Moshel (ruler) shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto Me; for who is this that devoted his lev to approach unto Me? saith Hashem.
30:22  And ye shall be My people, and I will be your Elohim.
30:23  Hinei, the whirlwind of Hashem goeth forth with chemah (wrath, fury), a sweeping whirlwind; it shall fall violently upon the rosh of the resha’im.
30:24  The Charon Af Hashem shall not return, until He hath accomplished it, and until He have performed the mezimmot (intents, purposes) of His lev; in the acharit hayamim (latter days) ye shall understand this.
