Bible verse
How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it.
Jeremiah 30:7 · BSB
The verses around it, from Jeremiah 30.
3 For behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will restore from captivity My people Israel and Judah, declares the LORD. I will restore them to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”
4 These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and Judah.
5 Yes, this is what the LORD says: “A cry of panic is heard—a cry of terror, not of peace.
6 Ask now, and see: Can a male give birth? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his stomach like a woman in labor and every face turned pale?
7 How awful that day will be! None will be like it! It is the time of Jacob’s distress, but he will be saved out of it.
8 On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will break the yoke off their necks and tear off their bonds, and no longer will strangers enslave them.
9 Instead, they will serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them.
10 As for you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid.
11 For I am with you to save you, declares the LORD. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have scattered you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no means leave you unpunished.”
