14 Happy will be those who love you,
    and happy are those who will rejoice in your peace.
Happy also all people who grieve with you
    because of your afflictions,
for they will rejoice with you
    and witness all your joy forever.(A)
15 My soul blesses[a] the Lord, the great King,(B)
16     for Jerusalem will be rebuilt as his house for all ages.
How happy I will be if a remnant of my descendants should survive
    to see your glory and acknowledge the King of heaven.
The gates of Jerusalem will be built with sapphire and emerald
    and all your walls with precious stones.
The towers of Jerusalem will be built with gold
    and their battlements with pure gold.
