22 Mutta katso, sinne on jäävä jäljelle pelastuneita, poikia ja tyttäriä, jotka viedään pois. katso, ne tulevat teidän luoksenne, ja te näette heidän vaelluksensa ja tekonsa ja tulette lohdutetuiksi siitä onnettomuudesta, jonka minä olen tuottanut Jerusalemille, kaikesta, minkä olen sille tuottanut.

2164. Verse 5 And I will take a piece of bread, that you may refresh yourselves; 1 after that you may pass on, for this is why you have passed over to your servant. And they said, Do as you have spoken.

'I will take a piece of bread' means something heavenly or celestial to go with [that something natural]. 'That you may refresh yourselves' means insofar as it is in keeping. 'After that you may pass on' means when He had left off perceiving that He would be content with this. 'For this is why you have passed over to your servant' means that this had been the purpose of their coming. 'And they said, Do as you have spoken' means that this was to be done.
