29
For the one who brought these calamities upon you will bring you everlasting joy with your salvation.
30
Take courage, O Jerusalem, for the one who named you will comfort you.
31
Wretched will be those who mistreated you and who rejoiced at your fall.
32
Wretched will be the cities that your children served as slaves; wretched will be the city that received your offspring.
33
For just as she rejoiced at your fall and was glad for your ruin, so she will be grieved at her own desolation.
