12. They will come and sing in the height of Zion,and will flow to the goodness of the Lord,to the grain, to the new wine, to the oil,and to the young of the flock and of the herd.Their soul will be as a watered garden.They will not sorrow any more at all.
13. Then the virgin will rejoice in the dance;the young men and the old together;for I will turn their mourning into joy,and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
14. I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness,and my people will be satisfied with my goodness,” says the Lord.
15. the Lord says:“A voice is heard in Ramah,lamentation and bitter weeping,Rachel weeping for her children.She refuses to be comforted for her children,because they are no more.”
16. the Lord says:“Refrain your voice from weeping,and your eyes from tears;for your work will be rewarded,” says the Lord.“They will come again from the land of the enemy.
17. There is hope for your latter end,” says the Lord.“Your children will come again to their own territory.
