Persian Dari Bible - Afgan Dialect - Version Good News for a New Age (GNN) == 2007
اما من می گویم: تا وقتی که شب و روز وجود دارد و نظام آسمان و زمین برقرار است،قوم اسرائیل و اولادۀ داود را ترک نمی کنم و همیشه یک نفر از نسل داود را بعنوان پادشاه بر تخت سلطنت می نشانم تا بر اولادۀ ابراهیم و اسحاق و یعقوب حکومت کند. من آن ها را از اسارت آزاد کرده به این سرزمین باز می گردانم و بر آن ها رحم می کنم.»
What Does This Mean?
In this verse, God is speaking through the prophet Jeremiah, addressing the Israelites' belief that God has abandoned His chosen people. God is expressing His disappointment with how the people have dismissed their own identity and future as a nation.
Explained for Children
Imagine you have two special toys that you love very much. One day, your friends say that you don't love those toys anymore and that they're not special. It makes you sad because you still love them very much. That's like what God is saying here. He loves His people, but others are saying He doesn't.
Historical Background
Jeremiah, a prophet during the Babylonian exile, wrote this around 627-580 BCE. He was addressing the people of Israel and Judah who had been scattered and were beginning to believe God had abandoned them. The cultural setting was one of despair and doubt in the face of exile.
Living It Out Today
In today's context, this verse can remind us not to doubt God's promises and presence in our lives, even when things seem bleak. For example, a community facing economic hardship might feel forgotten, but this verse encourages them to remember God's faithfulness.
