And the days of thy mourning have been completed. 21 And thy people `are' all of them righteous, To the age they possess the earth, A branch of My planting, A work of My hands, to be beautified. 22 The little one doth become a chief, And the small one a mighty nation, I, Jehovah, in its own time do hasten it!
