10 The mountains may move, and the hills may shake,but my kindness will never depart from you.My promise of peace will never change,”says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
11 “You suffering, comfortless, storm-ravaged city!I will rebuild your city with precious stones.I will reset your foundations with sapphires.
12 I will rebuild your towers with rubies,your gates with sparkling stones,and all your walls with precious stones.”
13 All your children will be taught by the Lord,and your children will have unlimited peace.
14 You will be established in righteousness.You will be far from oppression,so you will not be afraid.You will be far from destruction,so it won’t come near you.
15 “If anyone attacks you, it will not be my doing.Whoever attacks you will be defeated by you.
16 I’ve created blacksmiths to fan the coals into flamesand to produce useful weapons.I’ve also created destroyers to bring destruction.
