    I will make into a strong nation those driven away from their homes.
I will rule over them on Mount Zion.
    I will be their King from that time on and forever.
Jerusalem, you used to be

City of Zion, you used to be
    a place of safety for my people.
The glorious kingdom you had before

    Once again a king will rule over your people.”

Why are you crying out so loudly now?

    like the pain of a woman having a baby?
