17 But as for me, how am I able to help you?
18 For he who has brought these evils upon you, will rescue you from the hands of your enemies.
19 Walk on, sons, walk on, for I have been abandoned and I am alone.
20 I have taken off the garment of peace and have put on the sackcloth of supplication, and I will cry out to the most High in my days.
21 Be ever more peaceful, sons. Cry out to the Lord, and he will rescue you from the hand of the hostile leaders.
22 For I have placed my hope in your eternal salvation, and joy approaches me from the Holy One, over the mercy which will come to you by our eternal salvation.
23 For I sent you forth with sorrow and weeping, but the Lord will restore you to me with joy and gladness for eternity.
