14 “Behold, My servants will (A)shout joyfully with a glad heart,
But you will (B)cry out with a [a]heavy heart,
And you will wail with a broken spirit.
15 “You will leave your name for a (C)curse to My chosen ones,
And the Lord [b]God will slay you.
But [c]My servants will be called by (D)another name.
16 “Because he who [d]is blessed in the earth
Will [e]be blessed by the (E)God of truth;
And he who swears in the earth
Will (F)swear by the God of truth;
Because the former troubles are forgotten,
And because they are hidden from My sight!
