Jeremiah 31:13-15

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³Then shall the young women rejoice in the dance,
    and the young men and the old shall be merry.
I will turn their mourning into joy,
    I will comfort them, and give them gladness for sorrow.
¹⁴I will give the priests their fill of fatness,
    and my people shall be satisfied with my bounty,
says the Lord.

¹⁵Thus says the Lord:
A voice is heard in Ramah,
    lamentation and bitter weeping.
Rachel is weeping for her children;
    she refuses to be comforted for her children,
    because they are no more.
