    as though it were not serious.
‘Peace, peace,’ they say,
    when there is no peace.^(A)

¹⁰ “Hear the word of the Lord, you nations;
    proclaim it in distant coastlands:^(A)
‘He who scattered^(B) Israel will gather^(C) them
    and will watch over his flock like a shepherd.’^(D)
11 For the Lord will deliver Jacob
    and redeem^(E) them from the hand of those stronger^(F) than they.
¹² They will come and shout for joy^(G) on the heights^(H) of Zion;
    they will rejoice in the bounty^(I) of the Lord—
the grain, the new wine and the olive oil,^(J)
    the young of the flocks^(K) and herds.
They will be like a well-watered garden,^(L)
    and they will sorrow^(M) no more.
¹³ Then young women will dance and be glad,
    young men and old as well.
I will turn their mourning^(N) into gladness;
    I will give them comfort^(O) and joy^(P) instead of sorrow.
