Mt 2, Verses 17–18English original
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
(ord.) She will not be comforted in this present life, for that they are not, but transfers all her hope and comfort to the life to come.
