Do not fear, for you shall not be ashamed nor be humiliated;
    for you shall not be put to shame,
for you shall forget the shame of your youth
    and shall not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore.
For your Maker is your husband,
    the Lord of Hosts is His name;
and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
    He shall be called the God of the whole earth.

    as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
and a wife of youth
    when you were refused, says your God.
