[a]It will be to Me a (A)name of joy, praise and glory before (B)all the nations of the earth which will hear of all the (C)good that I do for them, and they will (D)fear and tremble because of all the good and all the peace that I make for it.’

10 “Thus says the Lord, ‘Yet again there will be heard in this place, of which you say, “It is a (E)waste, without man and without beast,” that is, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are (F)desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast, 11 the voice of (G)joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say,

(H)Give thanks to the Lord of hosts,
For the Lord is good,
For His lovingkindness is everlasting”;

and of those who bring a (I)thank offering into the house of the Lord. For I will restore the [b]fortunes of the land as they were at first,’ says the Lord.
