Jeremiah 30:18

Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof.

I will bring again the captivity - (; ).

Tents - used to intimate that their present dwellings in Chaldea were but temporary as tents.

Have mercy on his dwelling places - ().

The city shall be builded upon her own heap - on the same hill, i:e., site, a hill being the usual site chosen for a city, (cf. , margin.) This better answers the parallel clause, "after the manner thereof" (i:e., in the same becoming way as formerly), than the rendering, "its own heap of ruins," as in ,

The palace - the king's, on mount Zion.

Shall remain - rather, shall be inhabited (note, ; ). This confirms the English version, "palace," not as others translate, 'the temple' (see ; ).
