10 The mountains may shift,and the hills may be shaken,but my faithful love won’t shift from you,and my covenant of peace won’t be shaken,says the Lord, the one who pities you.
11 Suffering one, storm-tossed, uncomforted,look, I am setting your gemstonesin silvery metaland your foundations with sapphires.
12 I will make your towers of rubies,and your gates of beryl,and all your walls of precious jewels.
13 All your children will be disciples of the Lord—I will make peace abound for your children.
14 You will be firmly founded in righteousness.You will stay far from oppression because you won’t fear,far from terror because it won’t come near you.
15 If anyone attacks you, it’s none of my doing.Whoever attacks you will fall because of you.
16 Look, I myself created the metalworker who blows the fire of coal and who produces a tool for his work.And I myself created the looter to destroy.
