“Do not be afraid, for you will (A)not be put to shame;
And do not feel dishonored, for you will not be humiliated;
But you will forget the (B)shame of your virginity,
And the (C)reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more.
For your (D)husband is your Maker,
Whose name is Yahweh of hosts;
And your (E)Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel,
Who is called the (F)God of all the earth.
For Yahweh has called you,
Like a wife (G)forsaken and grieved in spirit,
Even like a wife of one’s youth when she is rejected,”
Says your God.
[a]For a (H)brief moment I forsook you,
But with great compassion I will (I)gather you.
In [b]a (J)flood of fury
I hid My face from you for a moment,
But with everlasting (K)lovingkindness I will (L)have compassion on you,”
Says Yahweh your (M)Redeemer.

but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,
