Yahweh’s rescue of Ya’akov’s descendants

46:27 Yahweh’s rescue of Ya’akov’s descendants

27 But you, my servant Ya’akov (Jacob) (meaning Yisrael (Israel) ), don’t be afraid.

Don’t be dismayed, Yisrael, because listen,

I’m about to bring you back from far away,

and your descendants from the land of their captivity.

Then Ya’akov will return, find peace, and be secure,

and there’ll be no one to terrify him.[ref]

28 This is Yahweh’s declaration:

You, my servant Ya’akov, don’t be afraid,

because I’m with you,

so I’ll send complete destruction to all the nations that I drove you into.

But I won’t completely destroy you,

although I’ll discipline you fairly,

and I certainly won’t leave you unpunished.”

46:27-28: Jer 30:10-11.
