Jeremiah 32:38 In-Context

36 You have been saying, "This city will be handed over to the king of Babylon through sword, famine, and disease." But this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says:
37 I will gather them from all the countries where I have scattered them in my fierce anger and rage. I will bring them back to this place to live securely.
38 They will be my people, and I will be their God.
39 I will give them one heart and one mind so that they may worship me all the days of their lives, for their own good and for the good of their children after them.
40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them, never to stop treating them graciously. I will put into their hearts a sense of awe for me so that they won't turn away from me.
