Baruch 4:23-25
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
23 With mourning and lament I sent you away,
but God will give you back to me
with gladness and joy forever.(A)
24 As Zion’s neighbors lately saw you taken captive,
so shall they soon see God’s salvation come to you,
with great glory and the splendor of the Eternal One.(B)
25 “My children, bear patiently the wrath(C)
that has come upon you from God;
Your enemies have persecuted you,
but you will soon see their destruction
and trample upon their necks.[a]
