⁹ They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

⁴ Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me, My father, thou art the guide of my youth?

⁴ Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

²² And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:

⁴ In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the Lord their God.
