Jeremiah 31:16-18

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

¹⁶ Thus says the Lord:
Keep your voice from weeping,
    and your eyes from tears;
for there is a reward for your work,
says the Lord:
    they shall come back from the land of the enemy;
¹⁷ there is hope for your future,
says the Lord:
    your children shall come back to their own country.
