13 “Then the virgin will rejoice in the (A)dance,
And the young men and the old, together,
For I will (B)turn their mourning into joy
And will comfort them and give them (C)joy for their sorrow.
14 “I will [a]fill the soul of the priests with [b]abundance,
And My people will be (D)satisfied with My goodness,” declares the Lord.

15 Thus says the Lord,
(E)A voice is heard in (F)Ramah,
Lamentation and bitter weeping.
Rachel is weeping for her children;
She (G)refuses to be comforted for her children,
Because (H)they are no more.”
