4. Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed; neither be thou discouraged; for thou shalt not suffer disgrace; for thou shalt forget the boshet alumayich (the shame of thy youth), and shalt not remember any more thy cherpat almenut (reproach of widowhood).
5. For thy Oseh (Maker) is thine ba'al (husband); Hashem Tzva'os Shmo; and thy Go'el is Kadosh Yisroel; The Elohei Kol HaAretz He is called.
6. For Hashem hath called thee back, thou who art like an isha forsaken and atzuvat ruach (grieved in spirit) as a cast off eshet ne'urim (wife of one's youth), saith thy G-d.
7. For a rega katon (small moment) have I abandoned thee; but with rachamim gedolim will I gather thee back.
8. With a little wrath I hid My face from thee for a rega (moment); but with chesed olam will I have rachamim on thee, saith thy Go'el, Hashem.
9. For this is as the waters of Noach unto Me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noach should no more cover ha'aretz; so have I sworn that with thee I would not be in wrath nor rebuke thee.
10. For the harim (mountains) shall depart, and the geva'ot (hills) be removed; but My chesed shall not depart from thee, neither shall the Brit of My Shalom be removed, saith Merachamech Hashem (Hashem the One having rachamim on thee).
11. O thou afflicted one, tempest-tossed and unconsoled, hinei, I will lay thy stones of glistening colors, and lay thy yesod (foundation, i.e., figuratively of post-Exilic Jerusalem's foundation) with sapphires.
12. And I will make thy battlements of rubies, and thy she'arim (gates) of carbuncles, and all thy walls of avnei chefetz (precious stones).
13. And all thy banim shall be taught of Hashem; and the shalom of thy banim shall be rav (great).
