“Behold, at that time I will deal with all them that afflict thee: and
I will save her that halteth, and gather her that was driven away; and
I will make them a praise and a name, whose shame hath been in all
the earth. At that time will I bring you in, and at that time will I gather
you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of
the earth, when I bring again your captivity before your eyes, saith the
Lord.”
Zephaniah 3:19, 20
, R.V.
“Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel;
Be glad and rejoice with all the heart,
O daughter of Jerusalem.
The Lord hath taken away thy judgments,
He hath cast out thine enemy:
The King of Israel, even the Lord,
Is in the midst of thee:
Thou shalt not see evil any more.
“In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou
not:
And to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.
The Lord thy God in the midst of thee
Is mighty; He will save,
He will rejoice over thee with joy;
He will rest in His love,
He will joy over thee with singing.”
