KJV ORIGINAL
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.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
But listen — there's going to be a group of survivors left behind, sons and daughters who make it out. When they come to you, you'll see how they lived and what they did, and suddenly you'll understand why I had to let all that devastation happen to Jerusalem. You'll get it.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes the survivors' stories are what help us understand why the hard things had to happen.
