⁷ And it shall be, when they say to thee, Why sighest thou? that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord GOD.

²² For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people.

²⁶ This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
