25
My children, suffer patiently the wrath that is come upon you from God; for thine enemy hath persecuted thee, but shortly thou shalt see his destruction, and shalt tread upon his neck.
26
My delicate ones have gone rough ways, and were taken away as a flock caught by the enemies.
27
"Be of good comfort, O my children, and cry unto God; for ye shall be remembered by Him that brought these things upon you.
28
For as it was your mind to go astray from God, so, being returned, seek Him ten times more.
29
For He that hath brought these plagues upon you shall bring you everlasting joy again with your salvation."
30
Take a good heart, O Jerusalem; for He that gave thee that name will comfort thee.
31
Miserable are they that afflicted thee, and rejoiced at thy fall.
32
Miserable are the cities which thy children served; miserable is she that received thy sons.
33
For as she rejoiced at thy ruin, and was glad of thy fall, so shall she be grieved for her own desolation.
34
For I will take away the rejoicing of her great multitude, and her pride shall be turned into mourning.
35
For fire shall come upon her from the Everlasting, long to endure; and she shall be inhabited by devils for a great time.
