11 Jerusalem, you are sadand discouraged,tossed around in a storm.But I, the Lord,will rebuild your citywith precious stones;for your foundationI will use blue sapphires.
12 Your fortresseswill be built of rubies,your gates of jewels,and your walls of gems.
13 I will teach your childrenand make them successful.
14 You will be built on fairnesswith no fears of injustice;every one of your worrieswill be taken far from you.
15 I will never send anyoneto attack your city,and you will make prisonersof those who do attack.
16 Don't forget that I createdmetalworkers who make weaponsover burning coals.I also created armiesthat can bring destruction.
17 Weapons made to attack youwon't be successful;words spoken against youwon't hurt at all.My servants, Jerusalem is yours!I, the Lord, promiseto bless you with victory.
