12 The Lord says:Look, I’m extending prosperity to her like a river,and the wealth of nations like an overflowing stream.You will nurse and be carried on the hipand bounced upon the knee.
13 As a mother comforts her child,so I will comfort you;in Jerusalem you will be comforted.
14 When you see this, your heart will rejoice;your entire being will flourish like grass.The Lord’s power will be known among his servants,but his fury among his enemies.
15 The Lord will come with fire,God’s chariots like a windstorm,to repay in hot anger,to rebuke with fiery flames.
16 With fire and with sword the Lord will judge all humanity;many will be slain by the Lord.
17 Those who became holy and purify themselves, following their leader into the gardens, who eat pork, detestable animals, and mice, will meet their end together, says the Lord.
18 Because of their actions and thoughts, I’m coming to gather all nations and cultures. They will come to see my glory.
