Thus says the Lord:
The people who survived the sword
    found grace in the wilderness;
when Israel sought for rest,(A)
    the Lord appeared to him[a] from far away.[b]
I have loved you with an everlasting love;
    therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.(B)
Again I will build you, and you shall be built,
    O virgin Israel!
Again you shall adorn yourself with your tambourines
    and go forth in the dance of the merrymakers.(C)
