10 The mountains may shake to pieces,
    and the hills may disappear.
But I will never take my love away from you.
My covenant that brings peace between us will never finish.’
That is what the Lord who is very kind to you says.
11 ‘My city, enemies attacked you,
    like a strong storm.
    Nobody was there to help you.
Look! Now I will use beautiful jewels to build you again.
    I will build your foundation with blue sapphires.
12 I will build your strong towers with rubies.
I will build your gates with valuable jewels,
    and I will build your walls with beautiful stones.[a]
