16. See, I have written your name on my hand.Jerusalem, I always think about your walls.
17. Your children will soon return to you.And the people who defeated you and destroyed you will leave.
18. Look up and look around you.All your children are gathering to return to you.”The Lord says, “As surely as I live,your children will be like jewels.You will be as proud of them as a bride is of her jewels.
19. “You were destroyed and defeated.Your land was made useless.But now you will have more people than the land can hold.And those people who destroyed you will be far away.
