Yahweh continues speaking to the people of Jerusalem.
# you will forget the shame of your youth and you will remember no more the disgrace of your widowhood
# you will remember no more the disgrace of your widowhood
Yahweh telling the people that in the future they will not even think about the shame they experienced when their enemies defeated them is spoken of as if Yahweh were telling a woman that she will no longer think about the shame she experienced from being unable to have children and having her husband abandon her. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
When Israel is sent into exile, Yahweh says this is like a woman becoming a widow. When they come back from exile, they will be so happy they will be like a woman who no longer remembers the disgrace of being a widow. Alternate Translation: "you will not remember how disgraced you felt when you were like a widow" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
