Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I still earnestly remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him. I will surely have mercy on him,” says the LORD.

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૩૧:૨૦
શું એફ્રાઇમ મારો લાડકો દીકરો છે? શું તે પ્રિય દીકરો છે? હું જ્યારે તેની વિરુદ્ધ બોલું છું ત્યારે પાછો તને યાદ કરું છું. અને મારું હૃદય તને ઝંખે છે. હું ચોક્કસ તારા પર અનુકંપા બતાવીશ. એમ યહોવાહ કહે છે.
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह ३१:२०
क्या एप्रैम मेरा प्रिय पुत्र नहीं है? क्या वह मेरा दुलारा लड़का नहीं है? जब जब मैं उसके विरुद्ध बातें करता हूँ, तब-तब मुझे उसका स्मरण हो आता है। इसलिए मेरा मन उसके कारण भर आता है; और मैं निश्चय उस पर दया करूँगा, यहोवा की यही वाणी है।

In context

18“I have surely heard Ephraim grieving thus, ‘You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as an untrained calf. Turn me, and I will be turned, for you are the LORD my God.

19Surely after that I was turned. I repented. After that I was instructed. I struck my thigh. I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.’

20Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I still earnestly remember him. Therefore my heart yearns for him. I will surely have mercy on him,” says the LORD.

21“Set up road signs. Make guideposts. Set your heart toward the highway, even the way by which you went. Turn again, virgin of Israel. Turn again to these your cities.

22How 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.”
