Has your King perished?

Why are you crying Rachel?

 This is what the LORD says: “I hear a voice of mourning and great weeping, Rachel is weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”

This is what the LORD says: “Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded,” declares the LORD. 

“They will return from the land of the enemy.

So there is hope for your descendants,” declares the LORD. 

“Your children will return to their own land."

Jeremiah 31:15-17
