⁹ “To me this is like the days of Noah,
    when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.^(A)
So now I have sworn^(B) not to be angry^(C) with you,
    never to rebuke^(D) you again.
¹⁰ Though the mountains be shaken^(E)
    and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love^(F) for you will not be shaken^(G)
    nor my covenant^(H) of peace^(I) be removed,”
    says the Lord, who has compassion^(J) on you.

¹¹ “Afflicted^(K) city, lashed by storms^(L) and not comforted,^(M)
    I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,^[a](N)
    your foundations^(O) with lapis lazuli.^(P)
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
    your gates^(Q) of sparkling jewels,
    and all your walls of precious stones.
