Jeremiah 31:25-29
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 31
25For I give plenty of water to the weary ones, and refresh everyone who languishes.' 26At this I awoke and looked, and my sleep had been pleasant to me.
27Behold, days are coming,' declares the Lord, 'when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of mankind and the seed of animals.
28And just as I have watched over them to uproot them, tear them down, ruin, destroy, and bring disaster on them, so I will watch over them to build and to plant them,' declares the Lord.

28And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith the Lord.
29In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.
