Thus says the Lord:
“The people who survived the sword
    found grace in the wilderness;
(A)when Israel sought for rest,
    the Lord appeared to him[a] from far away.
(B)I have loved you with an everlasting love;
    therefore (C)I have continued (D)my faithfulness to you.
(E)Again I will build you, and you shall be built,
    O virgin Israel!
(F)Again you shall adorn yourself with tambourines
    and shall go forth in (G)the dance of the merrymakers.
