Advent

Thus says Yahweh:

“A voice was heard in Ramah,
Lamentation and bitter weeping,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted for her children,
Because they are no more.”

Thus says Yahweh:

“Refrain your voice from weeping,
And your eyes from tears;
For your work shall be rewarded, says Yahweh,
And they shall come back from the land of the enemy.
There is hope in your future, says Yahweh,
That your children shall come back to their own border.
