Baruch 4:29-33 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

29. For the one who has brought disaster upon youwill, in saving you, bring you eternal joy.”

30. Take courage, Jerusalem!The one who gave you your name will console you.

31. Wretched shall be those who harmed you,who rejoiced at your downfall;

32. Wretched shall be the cities where your children were enslaved,wretched the city that received your children.

33. As that city rejoiced at your collapse,and made merry at your downfall,so shall she grieve over her own desolation.
