The Lord is honored. He lives in heaven.
    He will make sure Zion’s people only do what is fair and right.
He will be the firm foundation for their entire lives.
    He will give them all the wisdom, knowledge and saving power they will ever need.
    Respect for the Lord is the key to that treasure.

Look! Judah’s brave men cry out loud in the streets.
    The messengers who were sent to bring peace weep bitter tears.
