40 Comfort, comfort^(A) my people,
    says your God.

³ The Lord will surely comfort^(A) Zion^(B)
    and will look with compassion on all her ruins;^(C)
he will make her deserts like Eden,^(D)
    her wastelands^(E) like the garden of the Lord.
Joy and gladness^(F) will be found in her,
    thanksgiving^(G) and the sound of singing.
