Jeremiah 31:16 in Context — Jeremiah 31
14 Y el alma del sacerdote embriagaré de grosura, y será mi pueblo saciado de mi bien, dice Jehová.
15 Así ha dicho Jehová: Voz fué oída en Ramá, llanto y lloro amargo: Rachêl que lamenta por sus hijos, no quiso ser consolada acerca de sus hijos, porque perecieron.
16 Así ha dicho Jehová: Reprime tu voz del llanto, y tus ojos de las lágrimas; porque salario hay para tu obra, dice Jehová, y volverán de la tierra del enemigo.
17 Esperanza también hay para tu fin, dice Jehová, y los hijos volverán á su término.
