my tent curtains, in a moment.

beautiful with well-formed fruit.
He has set fire to it,
and its branches are consumed[fn]
with the sound of a mighty tumult.

even they were treacherous to you;
even they have cried out loudly after you.

though they speak well of you.
Why are you like a helpless man,
like a warrior unable to save?
Yet you are among us, LORD,
and we bear your name.
Don’t leave us!
Your words were found, and I ate them.
Your words became a delight to me
and the joy of my heart,
for I bear your name,
LORD God of Armies.

and will heal you of your wounds —
this is the LORD’s declaration —
for they call you Outcast,
Zion whom no one cares about.

in the hill country of Ephraim,
“Come, let’s go up to Zion,
to the LORD our God! ”

and Jerusalem will dwell securely,
and this is what she will be named:
The LORD Is Our Righteousness.[fn]
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD after King Zedekiah made a covenant with all the people who were in Jerusalem to proclaim freedom to them.
