Ezekiel 14:22

Yet lo! there hath been left therein a remnant of fugitives to be brought forth —sons and daughters— There they are! coming forth unto you, And so ye shall see their way, and their doings, and be consoled over the calamity which I have brought in upon Jerusalem even all that I have brought in upon her.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.

In Context

21For thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, How much less [should they avail] when my four calamitous judgments, sword and famine and mischievous wild beast and pestilence I have sent against Jerusalem,—to cut off therefrom man and beast?

23Yea they shall console you, when ye see their way and their doings,— So shall ye know that not without cause, have I done, anything that I have done with her, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
