But suppose I announce that a nation or kingdom is going to be built up and planted.

我何时论到一邦或一国说，要建立、栽植；

我何时论到一邦或一国说，要建立、栽植；

我何时论到一邦或一国说，要建立、栽植；

当我宣布要建造、栽培哪一邦或哪一国的时候，

同样，我什么时候宣布要建立、栽植一邦或一国，

我何時論到一邦或一國說，要建立、栽植；

我何時論到一邦或一國說，要建立、栽植；

我何時論到一邦或一國說，要建立、栽植；

當我宣佈要建造、栽培哪一邦或哪一國的時候，

同樣，我甚麼時候宣布要建立、栽植一邦或一國，

我甚麼時候論到一邦或一國說，要建立，要栽植，

我論一族、或論一國之時、言欲植之、建之、

如我命邦國、必當開創、立其坵基、而彼邦國、不從我命、作惡不悛、則我欲錫之福、必不行焉。

如我言、某邦某國、當建當植、

And if at another time I announce that a nation or kingdom is to be built up and planted,

And if at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it,

And if I announce that I will plant and build up a certain nation or kingdom,

At another time I might announce concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it.

Or at another moment I might speak concerning a nation or concerning a kingdom to build up or to plant it;

And the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it,

And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;

At another time I announce that I will build and plant a nation or a kingdom.

And[ at what] instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant[ it];

And there are times when I promise to build up and establish a nation or kingdom.

At the instant I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;

I watched over Israel and Judah to pull them up by the roots. I tore them down. I crushed them. I destroyed them. I brought horrible trouble on them. But now I will watch over them to build them up and plant them,” announces the Lord.

“ The time will come when I will set up David’s fallen shelter. I will repair its broken walls. I will rebuild what was destroyed. I will make it what it used to be.Then my people will take control of those who are left alive in Edom. They will also possess all the nations that belong to me,” announces the Lord. He will do all these things.“ The days are coming,” announces the Lord.“ At that time those who plow the land will catch up with those who harvest the crops. Those who stomp on grapes will catch up with those who plant the vines. Fresh wine will drip from the mountains. It will flow down from all the hills.I will bring my people Israel back home. I will bless them with great success again. They will rebuild the destroyed cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink the wine they produce. They will make gardens and eat their fruit.I will plant Israel in their own land. They will never again be removed from the land I have given them,” says the Lord your God.

Today I am appointing you to speak to nations and kingdoms. I give you authority to pull them up by the roots and tear them down. I give you authority to destroy them and crush them. I give you authority to build them up and plant them.”

The Lord who rules over all planted you. But now he has ordered your enemies to destroy you. The people of Israel and Judah have both done what is evil. They have made the Lord very angry by burning incense to Baal.

There is a time to be born. And there’s a time to die. There is a time to plant. And there’s a time to pull up what is planted.

The Lord says,“ I will bless Jacob’s people with great success again. I will show tender love to Israel. Jerusalem will be rebuilt where it was destroyed. The palace will stand in its proper place.

I will build you up again. Nation of Israel, you will be rebuilt. Once again you will use your tambourines to celebrate. You will go out and dance with joy.

I will take pleasure in doing good things for them. I will certainly plant them in this land. I will do these things with all my heart and soul.”

“ The days are coming,” announces the Lord.“ At that time Jerusalem will be rebuilt for me. It will be rebuilt from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.
