Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her *all you who love her,

Rejoice, rejoice with her, *all you who mourn over her,

That you may drink deeply with delight *from her comforting breast.

For thus says our God, *“I will extend peace to her like a river, the wealth of nations like an overflowing stream.

“You shall nurse and be carried on her arm, *and you shall nestle in her lap.

“As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; *you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

“You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, *you shall flourish like the grass of the fields.”
