14 And all the children of those who had bullied you, attacked and abused you,
    all those who hated you will come crawling on their knees and bowing at your feet.
And they will address you as “city of God, place of the Eternal,
    the Holy One of Israel’s Zion, sweet heaven on earth.”

15 Eternal One: Although you have suffered abandonment, hatred, and hopeless despair,
        and no one dared to pass through,
    I will make you a place of lofty beauty for all time,
        filled and overflowing with joy from generation to generation.
16     You will be enriched by the world and its kings,
        and you will know for certain that I am the Eternal,
    Your Liberator, your Redeemer, the Strong One of Jacob.
