Jeremiah 31:13-15

EasyEnglish Bible

‘Young women will dance because they are happy.
    The young men and the old men will also be happy.
I will cause them to laugh instead of weep.
I will comfort them,
    so that they are happy instead of sad.
¹⁴ I will give the priests plenty of good things.
My people will have everything that they need,
    because of all the good things that I give to them.’

‘You can hear a sad noise in Ramah.
    Someone is weeping with a loud voice.
It is Rachel, and she is weeping for her children.
    Nobody can help her to stop weeping,
    because her children are dead.’^[a]
