14. But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me,and the Lord has forgotten me.”
15. Can a woman forget her nursing child,and have no compassion on the son of her womb?Even these may forget,yet I will not forget.
16. See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands;your walls are continually before Me;
17. your builders hurry;your destroyers and those who devastated you shall depart from you.
18. Lift up your eyes and look all around;all these gather themselves together and come to you.As I live, says the Lord,you shall surely put on all of them as ornamentsand bind them on you as a bride does.
19. For your waste and your desolate places,and the land of your destruction,shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants,and those who swallowed you up shall be far away.
