“How long will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing on the earth: a woman will encompass a man.””

Reading this verse in context

This page shows one verse on its own, which is rarely how it was written. Jeremiah 31 contains 40 verses, and the sentences either side usually decide what this one means. Read the whole chapter before you quote it.
