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;
11 that you may nurse and be satisfied
from her consoling breast;
that you may drink deeply with delight
from her glorious abundance.”[a]

(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.
13 As one whom his mother comforts,
so (D)I will comfort you;
you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice;
(E)your bones shall flourish like the grass;
and (F)the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants,
and he shall show his indignation against his enemies.
