4
For thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city and the houses of the kings of Judah that were torn down to make a defense against the siege mounds and against the sword:
5
They are coming in to fight against the Chaldeans and to fill them with the dead bodies of men whom I shall strike down in my anger and my wrath, for I have hidden my face from this city because of all their evil.
6
Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.
7
I will restore the fortunes of Judah and the fortunes of Israel, and rebuild them as they were at first.
8
I will cleanse them from all the guilt of their sin against me, and I will forgive all the guilt of their sin and rebellion against me.
