Jeremiah 32:38 In-Context

36 "You have said this about the city, 'Because of wars, famines, and plagues it will be handed over to the king of Babylon.' Now this is what the LORD God of Israel says:

37 I am going to gather the people from all the lands where I scattered them in my anger, fury, and terrifying wrath. I will bring them back to this place and make them live here securely.

38 They will be my people, and I will be their God.

39 I will give them the same attitude and the same purpose so that they will fear me as long as they live. This will be for their own good and for the good of their children.

40 I will make an eternal promise to them that I will never stop blessing them. I will make them fear me so that they will never turn away from me.
