Structure
NKJV groups this chapter into:
- Jeremiah 30:1-24 = Restoration of Israel and Judah
Verse 10
- ‘Therefore do not fear, O My servant Jacob,’ says the Lord,
- ‘Nor be dismayed, O Israel;
- For behold, I will save you from afar,
- And your seed from the land of their captivity.
- Jacob shall return, have rest and be quiet,
- And no one shall make him afraid. (NKJV)[5]
- "Do not fear": a common phrase in prophecy of salvation (Genesis 15:1; Isaiah 35:4; Isaiah 43:1).[6]
- "My servant": this terminology for Israel parallels that of Isaiah 42:1 and Isaiah 44:1.[7]
Verse 11
- For I am with you,’ says the Lord, ‘to save you;
- Though I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you,
- Yet I will not make a complete end of you.
- But I will correct you in justice,
- And will not let you go altogether unpunished.’ (NKJV)[8]
Verse numbering
The order of chapters and verses of the Book of Jeremiah in the English Bibles, Masoretic Text (Hebrew), and Vulgate (Latin), in some places differs from that in Septuagint (LXX, the Greek Bible used in the Eastern Orthodox Church and others) according to Rahlfs or Brenton. The following table is taken with minor adjustments from Brenton's Septuagint, page 971.[9]
The order of CATSS based on Alfred Rahlfs' Septuaginta (1935), differs in some details from Joseph Ziegler's critical edition (1957) in Göttingen LXX. Swete's Introduction mostly agrees with Rahlfs edition (=CATSS).[9]
| Hebrew, Vulgate, English | Rahlfs'LXX (CATSS) | Brenton's LXX |
|---|---|---|
| 30:1-9,12-14,16-21,23-24 | 37:1-9,12-14.16-21,23-24 | |
| 30:10,15,22 | none | |
| 49:1-5,23-27,28-33 | 30:1-5,29-33,23-28 | 30:1-5,23-27,28-33 |
