28
The nations shall envy you but they shall not be able to do anything against you, says the Lord.
29
My hands will cover you, that your sons may not see Gehenna.
30
Rejoice, O mother, with your sons, because I will deliver you, says the Lord.
31
Remember your sons that sleep, because I will bring them out of the hiding places of the earth, and will show mercy to them; for I am merciful, says the Lord Almighty.
32
Embrace your children until I come, and proclaim mercy to them; because my springs run over, and my grace will not fail."
