So shall thy sons (Heb. thy Restorer) marry thee:
And as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride,
“So shall thy God rejoice over thee.
(Isa. lxii. 3-5, r.v.)
“The Lord hath appeared of old (or from afar) unto me, saying,
Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love;
Therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee.
Again will I build thee, and thou shalt be built, O Virgin of Israel....
He that scattered Israel will gather him,
And keep him as a shepherd doth his flock,
