Tobit 13:8-18

8 Let all men speak, and let all praise Him for His righteousness.
9 "O Jerusalem, the holy city, He will scourge thee for thy children's works, and will have mercy again on the sons of the righteous.
10 Give praise to the Lord, for He is good; and praise the everlasting King, that His tabernacle may be built in thee again with joy, and let Him make joyful there in thee those that are captives, and love in thee for ever those that are miserable.
11 "Many nations shall come from afar to the name of the Lord God with gifts in their hands, even gifts to the King of heaven; all generations shall praise thee with great joy.
12 Cursed are all they that hate thee, and blessed shall all be that love thee for ever.
13 Rejoice and be glad for the children of the just; for they shall be gathered together, and shall bless the Lord of the just.
14 O blessed are they that love thee, for they shall rejoice in thy peace. Blessed are they that have been sorrowful for all thy scourges; for they shall rejoice for thee, when they have seen all thy glory, and shall be glad for ever.
15 "Let my soul bless God the great King.
16 For Jerusalem shall be built up with sapphires and emeralds and precious stone; thy walls and towers and battlements with pure gold.
17 And the streets of Jerusalem shall be paved with beryl and ruby and stones of Ophir.
18 And all her streets shall say, `Alleluia'; and they shall praise Him, saying, `Blessed be God, who hath extolled it for ever.'"
