Isaiah 66:10-13

English Standard Version

¹⁰^(A)“Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her,
    all you who love her;
rejoice with her in joy,
    all you who mourn over her;
¹¹that you may nurse and be satisfied
    from her consoling breast;
that you may drink deeply with delight
    from her glorious abundance.”^[a]

¹²For thus says the Lord:
^(B)“Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,
    and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream;
and ^(C)you shall nurse, you shall be carried upon her hip,
    and bounced upon her knees.
¹³As one whom his mother comforts,
    so ^(D)I will comfort you;
    you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
