Isiah 49

¹³ Shout for joy, O heavens; 

       rejoice, O earth; 
       burst into song, O mountains! 
       For the LORD comforts his people 
       and will have compassion on his afflicted ones.

 ¹⁴ But Zion said, "The LORD has forsaken me, 
       the Lord has forgotten me."

 ¹⁵ "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast 
       and have no compassion on the child she has borne? 
       Though she may forget, 
      I will not forget you!

 ¹⁶ See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; 
       your walls are ever before me.
