Jeremiah 31:15-17

Modern English Version

A voice is heard in Ramah,
    lamentation and bitter weeping,
Rachel weeping for her children,
    refusing to be comforted for her children,
    because they are no more.

Keep your voice from weeping
    and your eyes from tears;
for your work shall be rewarded,
    says the Lord,
    and they shall come back from the land of the enemy.
¹⁷ There is hope for your future,
    says the Lord,
    that your children will come back to their own border.
