Isaiah

Isaiah 66:12–13

12For this is what the LORD says:

“I will extend peace to her like a river,

and the wealth of nations like a flowing stream;

you will nurse and be carried on her arm,

and bounced upon her knees.

13As a mother comforts her son,

so will I comfort you,

and you will be consoled over Jerusalem.”
