Jer 31:16 Thus says the LORD: “Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears; for your work shall be rewarded,” says the LORD, “And they shall come back from the land of the enemy
Jer 31:17 There is hope in your future,” says the LORD, “That your children shall come back to their own border.
This message of hope was given by prophet Jeremiah to the remnants of Israel. Their children had been taken as captives to Babylon. This brought alot of anguish, weeping and hopelessness. Jeremiah told them to bring the weeping to an end because the grief would not be perpetual. The exiles would return and the land would be inhabited again.
There are serious concerns that have always kept you weeping and as things are today , the future is grim. Your end will be better than your beginning. ” There is hope for your future, declares the Lord”. Your work will be rewarded.
