15 “You have been hated and left empty
    with no one passing through.
But I will make you great from now on;
    you will be a place of happiness forever and ever.

    like a child drinking milk from its mother.
Then you will know that it is I, the Lord, who saves you.
    You will know that the Powerful One of Jacob protects you.

    silver in place of iron,
bronze in place of wood,
    iron in place of rocks.
I will change your punishment into peace,
    and you will be ruled by what is right.
