14:22 “I will rise up against them,”

A charioteer,
a team of horses.”

but he did not even open his mouth.

like a sheep silent before her shearers,

65:18 But be happy and rejoice forevermore
over what I am about to create!
For look, I am ready to create Jerusalem to be a source of joy,
and her people to be a source of happiness.
