1This word came to Jeremiah from the LORD: 2Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: Write down on a scroll all the words I have spoken to you. 12For thus says the LORD: Incurable is your wound, grievous your injury; 13There is none to plead your case, no remedy for your running sore, no healing for you. 14All your lovers have forgotten you, they do not seek you out. I struck you as an enemy would strike, punishing you cruelly. 15Why cry out over your wound? There is no relief for your pain. Because of your great guilt, your numerous sins, I have done this to you. 18Thus says the LORD: See! I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s tents, on his dwellings I will have compassion; A city shall be rebuilt upon its own ruins, a citadel restored where it should be. 19From them will come praise, the sound of people rejoicing. I will increase them, they will not decrease, I will glorify them, they will not be insignificant. 20His children shall be as of old, his assembly shall stand firm in my presence, I will punish all his oppressors. 21His leader shall be one of his own, and his ruler shall emerge from his ranks. He shall approach me when I summon him; Why else would he dare approach me?—oracle of the LORD. 22You shall be my people, and I will be your God.

16The nations shall fear your name, LORD, all the kings of the earth, your glory, 17Once the LORD has rebuilt Zion and appeared in glory, 18Heeding the plea of the lowly, not scorning their prayer. 19Let this be written for the next generation, for a people not yet born, that they may praise the LORD: 20“The LORD looked down from the holy heights, viewed the earth from heaven, 21To attend to the groaning of the prisoners, to release those doomed to die.” 29May the children of your servants live on; may their descendants live in your presence. 22Then the LORD’s name will be declared on Zion, his praise in Jerusalem, 23When peoples and kingdoms gather to serve the LORD.

49Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.”

22Then he made the disciples get into the boat and precede him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23After doing so, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When it was evening he was there alone. 24Meanwhile the boat, already a few miles offshore, was being tossed about by the waves, for the wind was against it. 25During the fourth watch of the night, he came toward them, walking on the sea. 26When the disciples saw him walking on the sea they were terrified. “It is a ghost,” they said, and they cried out in fear. 27At once [Jesus] spoke to them, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” 28Peter said to him in reply, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” 29He said, “Come.” Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water toward Jesus. 30But when he saw how [strong] the wind was he became frightened; and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” 31Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32After they got into the boat, the wind died down. 33Those who were in the boat did him homage, saying, “Truly, you are the Son of God.” 34The Healings at Gennesaret. After making the crossing, they came to land at Gennesaret. 35When the men of that place recognized him, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought to him all those who were sick 36and begged him that they might touch only the tassel on his cloak, and as many as touched it were healed.
