# For look "For listen carefully." This phrase brings attention to what Yahweh is going to say next. # days are coming ... when I will reverse the captivity "there will be a time ... when I will reverse the captivity". See Jeremiah 7:32. # this is Yahweh's declaration "this is what I, Yahweh, have declared". Yahweh speaks of himself by name to express the certainty of what he is declaring. See Jeremiah 1:8. # reverse the captivity of my people, Israel and Judah "free my people, Israel and Judah, from their captivity". See Jeremiah 29:1
