Baruch 4:23-25

Good News Translation

²³ I cried and wailed when you were taken away, but God will bring you back and will make me happy forever. ²⁴ Just as the neighboring cities watched as you were taken captive, so they will soon see the Eternal God coming in glorious splendor to rescue you. ²⁵ My children, endure God's punishment with patience. Your enemies have persecuted you, but you will soon see them destroyed and at your mercy.
