“Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the LORD.
Look to the rock you were cut from, and to the quarry you were dug from.
Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, I blessed him, and made him many.
For the LORD has comforted Zion.
He has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD.
Joy and gladness will be found in them, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
