Chapter 30 of Jeremiah—Revised Standard Version (RSV)

  1. ¶ The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD:
  2. “Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Write in a book all the words that I have spoken to you.
  3. For behold, days are coming, says the LORD, when I will restore the fortunes of my people, Israel and Judah, says the LORD, and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall take possession of it.”
  4. ¶ These are the words which the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah:
  5. ¶ “Thus says the LORD:
    We have heard a cry of panic,
      of terror, and no peace.
  6. Ask now, and see,
      can a man bear a child?
    Why then do I see every man
      with his hands on his loins like a woman in labor?
      Why has every face turned pale?
  7. Alas! that day is so great
      there is none like it;
    it is a time of distress for Jacob;
      yet he shall be saved out of it.
  8. ¶ “And it shall come to pass in that day, says the LORD of hosts, that I will break the yoke from off their[a] neck, and I will burst their[b] bonds, and strangers shall no more make servants of them.[c]
  9. But they shall serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.
  10. ¶ “Then fear not, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD,
      nor be dismayed, O Israel;
    for lo, I will save you from afar,
      and your offspring from the land of their captivity.
    Jacob shall return and have quiet and ease,
      and none shall make him afraid.
  11. For I am with you to save you,
                    says the LORD;
    I will make a full end of all the nations
      among whom I scattered you,
      but of you I will not make a full end.
    I will chasten you in just measure,
      and I will by no means leave you unpunished.
  12. ¶ “For thus says the LORD:
    Your hurt is incurable,
      and your wound is grievous.
  13. There is none to uphold your cause,
      no medicine for your wound,
      no healing for you.
  14. All your lovers have forgotten you;
      they care nothing for you;
    for I have dealt you the blow of an enemy,
      the punishment of a merciless foe,
    because your guilt is great,
      because your sins are flagrant.
  15. Why do you cry out over your hurt?
      Your pain is incurable.
    Because your guilt is great,
      because your sins are flagrant,
      I have done these things to you.
  16. Therefore all who devour you shall be devoured,
      and all your foes, every one of them, shall go into captivity;
    those who despoil you shall become a spoil,
      and all who prey on you I will make a prey.
  17. For I will restore health to you,
      and your wounds I will heal,
                    says the LORD,
    because they have called you an outcast:
      ‘It is Zion, for whom no one cares!’
  18. ¶ “Thus says the LORD:
    Behold, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob,
      and have compassion on his dwellings;
    the city shall be rebuilt upon its mound,
      and the palace shall stand where it used to be.
  19. Out of them shall come songs of thanksgiving,
      and the voices of those who make merry.
    I will multiply them, and they shall not be few;
      I will make them honored, and they shall not be small.
  20. Their children shall be as they were of old,
      and their congregation shall be established before me;
      and I will punish all who oppress them.
  21. Their prince shall be one of themselves,
      their ruler shall come forth from their midst;
    I will make him draw near, and he shall approach me,
      for who would dare of himself to approach me?
                    says the LORD.
  22. And you shall be my people,
      and I will be your God.”
  23. ¶ Behold the storm of the LORD!
      Wrath has gone forth,
    a whirling tempest;
      it will burst upon the head of the wicked.
  24. The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back
      until he has executed and accomplished
      the intents of his mind.
    In the latter days you will understand this.

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
