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."
