14 E encherei a alma dos sacerdotes de fartura, e meu povo será saciado com o meu bem, diz o SENHOR.
15 Assim diz o SENHOR: Uma voz foi ouvida em Ramá, lamentação e choro amargo: Raquel chora por seus filhos; não quer ser consolada por causa de seus filhos, pois já não existem.
16 Assim diz o SENHOR: Reprime tua voz de choro, e teus olhos de lágrimas; pois há recompensa para teu trabalho, diz o SENHOR, pois voltarão da terra do inimigo.
17 E há esperança para o teu futuro,diz o SENHOR, pois os [teus] filhos voltarão a suas [próprias] fronteiras.
