Zephaniah 3:14-18

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁴ Sing for joy, Daughter Zion;
shout loudly, Israel!
Be glad and celebrate with all your heart,
Daughter Jerusalem!
¹⁵ The Lord has removed your punishment;
he has turned back your enemy.
The King of Israel, the Lord, is among you;
you need no longer fear harm.
¹⁶ On that day it will be said to Jerusalem:
“Do not fear;
Zion, do not let your hands grow weak.^(A)
17 The Lord your God is among you,
a warrior^(B) who saves.
He will rejoice over you^(C) with gladness.
He will be quiet^[a] in his love.
He will delight in you with singing.”^(D)

¹⁸ I will gather those who have been driven^(E)
from the appointed festivals;
they will be a tribute from you^[b]
and a reproach on her.^[c]
