Love » For Christ » For native land
When I heard this, I sat down and cried, mourning for a number of days while I fasted and prayed in the presence of the God of Heaven.
There we sat down and cried by the rivers of Babylon as we remembered Zion.
Then I was filled with fear. I replied to the king, "May the king live forever. Why shouldn't I be troubled, since the city where my ancestral sepulchers are located lies waste, with its gates burned by fire?"
"Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be happy for her, all you who love her; rejoice with her in gladness, all you who mourn over her,
Be strong, be courageous on behalf of our people and for the cities of our God, and may the LORD do what he thinks is best."
Later on, Hadad learned in Egypt that David had been buried with his ancestors and that Joab the army commander was dead. So Hadad asked Pharaoh, "Please send me out so I can go back to my own land."
Be strong, be courageous on behalf of our people and for the cities of our God, and may the LORD do what he thinks is best."
