12. Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all. 13. Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow. 14. And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the LORD.

Theological / Devotional

They shall come and sing. In vs. 12-14 Jeremiah tells of the blessings and prosperity to come upon the returned exiles. Their present “mourning” will be transformed into eternal “joy” and “comfort” if they remain obedient to the Lord’s plan for their restored nation.
