Bar 4:5
King James Version
“Be of good cheer, my people, the memorial of Israel.”
Context
2Turn thee, O Jacob, and take hold of it: walk in the presence of the light thereof, that thou mayest be illuminated.
3Give not thine honour to another, nor the things that are profitable unto thee to a strange nation.
4O Israel, happy are we: for things that are pleasing to God are made known unto us.
5Be of good cheer, my people, the memorial of Israel.
6Ye were sold to the nations, not for destruction: but because ye moved God to wrath, ye were delivered unto the enemies.
7For ye provoked him that made you by sacrificing unto devils, and not to God.
8Ye have forgotten the everlasting God, that brought you up; and ye have grieved Jerusalem, that nursed you.
