Hope in Suffering – Day 201

₁“Comfort my people,” says our God. “Comfort them!

₂Encourage the people of Jerusalem.

Tell them they have suffered long enough

and their sins are now forgiven.

I have punished them in full for all their sins.”

₃A voice cries out,

“Prepare in the wilderness a road for the LORD!

Clear the way in the desert for our God!
