Therefore thus says the Lord:“ If you return, I will restore you, and you shall stand before me. If you utter what is precious, and not what is worthless, you shall be as my mouth. They shall turn to you, but you shall not turn to them.

耶和华如此说：“你若归回，我就将你再带来，使你站在我面前；你若将宝贵的和下贱的分别出来，你就可以当作我的口。他们必归向你，你却不可归向他们。

所以耶和华如此说：“你若回转，我就使你归回，站在我面前。你若能将宝物和无用之物分别出来，你就可以当作我的口。他们必归向你，你却不可归向他们。

所以耶和华如此说：“你若回转，我就使你归回，站在我面前。你若能将宝物和无用之物分别出来，你就可以当作我的口。他们必归向你，你却不可归向他们。

耶和华对我说：“如果你回心转意，我就让你重新事奉我。如果你说有益的话，不说无益的话，就可以做我的发言人，百姓便会归向你，但你不可受他们的影响。

因此，耶和华这样说：“如果你回转，我必让你回来，你就可以侍立在我面前。如果你说宝贵的话，不说无价值的话，就必作我的口。他们要归向你，你却不要归向他们。

耶和華如此說：你若歸回，我就將你再帶來，使你站在我面前；你若將寶貴的和下賤的分別出來，你就可以當作我的口。他們必歸向你，你卻不可歸向他們。

所以耶和華如此說：「你若回轉，我就使你歸回，站在我面前。你若能將寶物和無用之物分別出來，你就可以當作我的口。他們必歸向你，你卻不可歸向他們。

所以耶和華如此說：「你若回轉，我就使你歸回，站在我面前。你若能將寶物和無用之物分別出來，你就可以當作我的口。他們必歸向你，你卻不可歸向他們。

耶和華對我說：「如果你回心轉意，我就讓你重新事奉我。如果你說有益的話，不說無益的話，就可以做我的發言人，百姓便會歸向你，但你不可受他們的影響。

因此，耶和華這樣說：“如果你回轉，我必讓你回來，你就可以侍立在我面前。如果你說寶貴的話，不說無價值的話，就必作我的口。他們要歸向你，你卻不要歸向他們。

所以永恆主這麼說：『你若轉回來，我就要將你帶回，讓你侍立在我面前，你若將寶貴的和賤劣的分別出來，你就可以做我的口舌；他們必轉回來歸於你，你卻不可轉去歸於他們。

耶和華曰、爾若歸誠、我必導爾復立我前、爾若取貴者於劣者中、則可為我口、民必歸爾、爾勿歸彼、

耶和華曰、如爾歸誠、則可為我僕、如爾能別善惡、則可傳我命、民當從爾、爾勿狥民。

主如是云、如爾歸誠、則我使爾歸、立於我前、如爾能以善別於惡、則可代我傳言、則可代我傳言原文作則可成如我口彼當歸爾、爾勿歸彼、

Therefore this is what the Lord says:“ If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them.

So the Lord says to Jeremiah,“ If you turn away from your sins, I will heal you. And then you will be able to serve me. Speak words that are worthy, not worthless. Then you will be speaking for me. Let these people turn to you. But you must not turn to them.

This is how the Lord responds:“ If you return to me, I will restore you so you can continue to serve me. If you speak good words rather than worthless ones, you will be my spokesman. You must influence them; do not let them influence you!

Therefore, this is what the LORD says: If you return, I will take you back; you will stand in my presence. And if you speak noble words, rather than worthless ones, you will be my spokesman. It is they who must return to you; you must not return to them.

Therefore, this is what the Lord says:“ If you return, then I will restore you— You will stand before Me; And if you extract the precious from the worthless, You will become My spokesman. They, for their part, may turn to you, But as for you, you are not to turn to them.

Therefore thus says the Lord:“ If you return, Then I will bring you back; You shall stand before Me; If you take out the precious from the vile, You shall be as My mouth. Let them return to you, But you must not return to them.

Therefore thus saith Jehovah, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, that thou mayest stand before me; and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: they shall return unto thee, but thou shalt not return unto them.

Therefore, this is what the Lord says: If you return, I will restore you; you will stand in My presence. And if you speak noble words, rather than worthless ones, you will be My spokesman. It is they who must return to you; you must not return to them.

Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again,[ and] thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.

Because of this, the LORD said,“ You must repent of such words and thoughts! If you do, I will restore you to the privilege of serving me. If you say what is worthwhile instead of what is worthless, I will again allow you to be my spokesman. They must become as you have been. You must not become like them.

Therefore Yahweh says,“ If you return, then I will bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take out the precious from the vile, you will be as my mouth. They will return to you, but you will not return to them.

“ Thus says the Lord of hosts: If you will walk in my ways and keep my charge, then you shall rule my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you the right of access among those who are standing here.

They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and show them how to distinguish between the unclean and the clean.

Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they taught the difference between the unclean and the clean, and they have disregarded my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them.

You are to distinguish between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean,

But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.

Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy,

for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict.

for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.

“ The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”

For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.

You shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth, and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth and will teach you both what to do.He shall speak for you to the people, and he shall be your mouth, and you shall be as God to him.

And you shall speak my words to them, whether they hear or refuse to hear, for they are a rebellious house.

Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.”

Then the Lord said to me,“ Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my heart would not turn toward this people. Send them out of my sight, and let them go!

Jeremiah said,“ You shall not be given to them. Obey now the voice of the Lord in what I say to you, and it shall be well with you, and your life shall be spared.But if you refuse to surrender, this is the vision which the Lord has shown to me:

for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”

If I say,“ I will not mention him, or speak any more in his name,” there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot.

And the angel answered him,“ I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I was sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.

Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men.

But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Moreover, he said to me,“ Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.And go to the exiles, to your people, and speak to them and say to them,‘ Thus says the Lord God,’ whether they hear or refuse to hear.”

Now Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab,“ As the Lord, the God of Israel, lives, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word.”

the Lord said to Moses,“ I am the Lord; tell Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say to you.”But Moses said to the Lord,“ Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips. How will Pharaoh listen to me?”

to them we did not yield in submission even for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you.

Woe is me, my mother, that you bore me, a man of strife and contention to the whole land! I have not lent, nor have I borrowed, yet all of them curse me.The Lord said,“ Have I not set you free for their good? Have I not pleaded for you before the enemy in the time of trouble and in the time of distress?Can one break iron, iron from the north, and bronze?“ Your wealth and your treasures I will give as spoil, without price, for all your sins, throughout all your territory.I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for in my anger a fire is kindled that shall burn forever.”O Lord, you know; remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on my persecutors. In your forbearance take me not away; know that for your sake I bear reproach.Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts.I did not sit in the company of revelers, nor did I rejoice; I sat alone, because your hand was upon me, for you had filled me with indignation.Why is my pain unceasing, my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Will you be to me like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?

From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.

“ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it the message that I tell you.”

The fool will no more be called noble, nor the scoundrel said to be honorable.For the fool speaks folly, and his heart is busy with iniquity, to practice ungodliness, to utter error concerning the Lord, to leave the craving of the hungry unsatisfied, and to deprive the thirsty of drink.
