9. Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth?
10. Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her:
11. That you may nurse, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that you may drink deeply, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12. For thus says the LORD,
13. As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
