10. Thus says the Lord to Esdras, Tell my people that I will give them the kingdom of Jerusalem, which I would have given to Israel.
11. Their glory also will I take to me, and give these the everlasting tabernacles, which I had prepared for them.
12. They shall have the tree of life for an ointment of sweet savor; they shall neither labor, nor be weary.
13. Ask, and you⌃ shall receive: pray for few days to you, that they may be shortened: the kingdom is already prepared for you: watch.
14. Take heaven and earth to witness, take them to witness; for I have given up the evil, and created the good: for I live, says the Lord.
15. Mother, embrace your children; I will bring them out with gladness like a dove; establish their feet; for I have chosen you, says the Lord.
