Jeremiah 46:28
Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
Fear thou not, O Jacob, my servant, saith the Lord, for I am with thee,.... Though afar off, in foreign lands, and in captivity: this exhortation is repeated, to strengthen their consolation, and them, against their fears of being cast off by the Lord:
for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee; the Babylonians and Chaldeans are no more:
but I will not make a full end of thee; the Jews to this day remain a people, and distinct from others, though scattered about in the world:
but correct thee in measure; with judgment, and in mercy:
yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished;
