⁸ Thus says the Lord,
“In a ^(A)favorable time I have answered You,
And in a day of salvation I have helped You;
And I will ^(B)keep You and ^(C)give You for a covenant of the people,
To ^[a](D)restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages;

⁴ Then they will ^(A)rebuild the ancient ruins,
They will raise up the former devastations;
And they will repair the ruined cities,
The desolations of many generations.
