It felt like ice cubes going down my back when I read this, and shared the news with my mother just now.
This past Sunday the First Reading in the Catholic Mass was from Jeremiah, also stating that Israel would be saved.

VERRRRRRRY INTERESTING.
And folks think they are pulling a snow job over on God.
He shall have them all in derision.
My son has always had an interest in the bog people, so I called him over when I saw this. We read Psalm 83 and his reaction was just, "Woah."
Noticed that that happens alot. Here are a couple of the weekday Psalms from last week.
7/21/06
Responsorial Psalm
Ps 94:5-6, 7-8, 9-10, 14-15
R. (14a) The Lord will not abandon his people.
Your people, O LORD, they trample down, your inheritance they afflict.
Widow and stranger they slay, the fatherless they murder.
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
And they say, “The LORD sees not; the God of Jacob perceives not.”
Understand, you senseless ones among the people; and, you fools, when will you be wise?
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
Shall he who shaped the ear not hear? or he who formed the eye not see?
Shall he who instructs nations not chastise, he who teaches men knowledge?
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
For the LORD will not cast off his people, nor abandon his inheritance;
But judgment shall again be with justice, and all the upright of heart shall follow it.
R. The Lord will not abandon his people.
7/19/06
Responsorial Psalm
Ps 48:2-3a, 3b-4, 5-6, 7-8
R. (see 9d) God upholds his city for ever.
Great is the LORD and wholly to be praised in the city of our God.
His holy mountain, fairest of heights, is the joy of all the earth.
R. God upholds his city for ever.
Mount Zion, “the recesses of the North,” is the city of the great King.
God is with her castles; renowned is he as a stronghold.
R. God upholds his city for ever.
For lo! the kings assemble, they come on together;
They also see, and at once are stunned, terrified, routed.
R. God upholds his city for ever.
Quaking seizes them there; anguish, like a woman’s in labor,
As though a wind from the east were shattering ships of Tarshish.
R. God upholds his city for ever.
