⁸ And finally, being all of one mind, having fellow-feeling, loving as brethren, compassionate, courteous,

¹⁵ Forget doth a woman her suckling, The loved one -- the son of her womb? Yea, these forget -- but I -- I forget not thee.

¹⁶ Lo, on the palms of the hand I have graven thee, Thy walls `are' before Me continually.

¹⁷ Hastened have those building thee, Those destroying thee, and laying thee waste, go out from thee.

⁶ And I have made mighty the house of Judah, And the house of Joseph I do save, And I have caused them to dwell, for I have loved them, And they have been as `if' I had not cast them off, For I `am' Jehovah their God, And I answer them.

²² The kindnesses of Jehovah! For we have not been consumed, For not ended have His mercies.

²³ New every morning, abundant `is' thy faithfulness.

²⁴ My portion `is' Jehovah, hath my soul said, Therefore I hope for Him.

¹⁵ to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

⁹ `Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, saying: True judgment judge ye, And kindness and mercy do one with another.

¹⁰ And widow, and fatherless, Sojourner, and poor, ye do not oppress, And the calamity of one another ye do not devise in your heart.

¹⁷ and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?

¹⁸ And therefore doth wait Jehovah to favour you, And therefore He is exalted to pity you, For a God of judgment `is' Jehovah, O the blessedness of all waiting for Him.

¹⁵ for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but `one' tempted in all things in like manner -- apart from sin;

¹² Put on, therefore, as choice ones of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering,

³ Blessed `is' God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the mercies, and God of all comfort,

⁴ who is comforting us in all our tribulation, for our being able to comfort those in any tribulation through the comfort with which we are comforted ourselves by God;

⁵ because, as the sufferings of the Christ do abound to us, so through the Christ doth abound also our comfort;

¹³ As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

³² and become one to another kind, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, according as also God in Christ did forgive you.
