1 “Listen to Me, you who follow after righteousness,You who seek the Lord:Look to the rock from which you were hewn,And to the hole of the pit from which you were dug.
2 Look to Abraham your father,And to Sarah who bore you;For I called him alone,And blessed him and increased him.”
3 For the Lord will comfort Zion,He will comfort all her waste places;He will make her wilderness like Eden,And her desert like the garden of the Lord;Joy and gladness will be found in it,Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.
4 “Listen to Me, My people;And give ear to Me, O My nation:For law will proceed from Me,And I will make My justice restAs a light of the peoples.
