OET interlinear JER 31:12

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) on the heights of Zion

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_will_come and,they_will_cry_out_for_joy on,the_height_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) and,they_will_be_radiant to/towards goodness_of YHWH on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in grain and,on new_wine and,on oil and,on sons_of flock_of_sheep/goats and,herd and,it_will_be life_of,their like,a_garden watered and=not they_will_do_again to,become_faint again/more )

“on Zion, the high place” or “on Mount Zion.” Being on top of a hill is a metaphor for being happy. If your language associates mountain tops with sadness, it would be best to leave out the metaphor.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

(Occurrence 0) like a watered garden

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_will_come and,they_will_cry_out_for_joy on,the_height_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) and,they_will_be_radiant to/towards goodness_of YHWH on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in grain and,on new_wine and,on oil and,on sons_of flock_of_sheep/goats and,herd and,it_will_be life_of,their like,a_garden watered and=not they_will_do_again to,become_faint again/more )

This means they will be strong and healthy, and they will prosper.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole

(Occurrence 0) they will never again feel any more sorrow

(Some words not found in UHB: and,they_will_come and,they_will_cry_out_for_joy on,the_height_of Tsiyyōn/(Zion) and,they_will_be_radiant to/towards goodness_of YHWH on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in grain and,on new_wine and,on oil and,on sons_of flock_of_sheep/goats and,herd and,it_will_be life_of,their like,a_garden watered and=not they_will_do_again to,become_faint again/more )

The world “never” is a generalization. The Israelites will almost always feel joy.
