Look at Abraham, your ancestor,
    and Sarah, who gave birth to your ancestors.
Abraham had no children when I called him,
    but I blessed him and gave him many descendants.
So the Lord will comfort Jerusalem;
    he will show mercy to those who live in her ruins.
He will change her deserts into a garden like Eden;
    he will make her empty lands like the garden of the Lord.
People there will be very happy;
    they will give thanks and sing songs.

“My people, listen to me;
    my nation, pay attention to me.
I will give the people my teachings,
    and my decisions will be like a light to all people.
