20 Your days of grief will come to an end.
I, the Lord, will be your eternal light,
More lasting than the sun and moon.
21 Your people will all do what is right,
And will possess the land forever.
I planted them, I made them,
To reveal my greatness to all.
22 Even your smallest and humblest family
Will become as great as a powerful nation.
When the right time comes,
I will make this happen quickly.
I am the Lord!”

20 Your sun(A) will never set again,
    and your moon will wane no more;
the Lord will be your everlasting light,
    and your days of sorrow(B) will end.
21 Then all your people will be righteous(C)
    and they will possess(D) the land forever.
They are the shoot I have planted,(E)
    the work of my hands,(F)
    for the display of my splendor.(G)
22 The least of you will become a thousand,
    the smallest a mighty nation.(H)
I am the Lord;
    in its time I will do this swiftly.”(I)

21 Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

22 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time.
