Like a woman in labor,
And all faces turned pale?

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 30:11 - For I am with you,’ says the LORD, ‘to save you;

And will not let you go altogether unpunished.’

You have no healing medicines.

With the chastisement of a cruel one,
For the multitude of your iniquities,
Because your sins have increased.

And the palace shall remain according to its own plan.

And their congregation shall be established before Me;
And I will punish all who oppress them.

And their governor shall come from their midst;
Then I will cause him to draw near,
And he shall approach Me;
For who is this who pledged his heart to approach Me?’ says the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 30:22 - ‘You shall be My people,
And I will be your God.’ ”

Goes forth with fury,
A continuing whirlwind;

And until He has performed the intents of His heart.

In the latter days you will consider it.
