12. Lo, these from afar come in, And lo, these from the north, and from the sea, And these from the land of Sinim.
13. Sing, O heavens, and joy, O earth, And break forth, O mountains, with singing, For comforted hath Jehovah His people, And His afflicted ones He doth pity.
14. And Zion saith, `Jehovah hath forsaken me, And my Lord hath forgotten me.'
15. Forget doth a woman her suckling, The loved one--the son of her womb? Yea, these forget--but I--I forget not thee.
16. Lo, on the palms of the hand I have graven thee, Thy walls [are] before Me continually.
17. Hastened have those building thee, Those destroying thee, and laying thee waste, go out from thee.
18. Lift up round about thine eyes and see, All of them have been gathered, They have come to thee. I live, an affirmation of Jehovah! Surely all of them as an ornament thou puttest on, And thou bindest them on like a bride.
