Zephaniah 3:15-20
New King James Version
15 The Lord has taken away your judgments,
He has cast out your enemy.
(A)The King of Israel, the Lord, (B)is in your midst;
You shall [a]see disaster no more.
16 In that day (C)it shall be said to Jerusalem:
“Do not fear;
Zion, (D)let not your hands be weak.
17 The Lord your God (E)in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
(F)He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.”
18 “I will gather those who (G)sorrow over the appointed assembly,
Who are among you,
To whom its reproach is a burden.
19 Behold, at that time
I will deal with all who afflict you;
I will save the (H)lame,
And gather those who were driven out;
I will appoint them for praise and fame
In every land where they were put to shame.
20 At that time (I)I will bring you back,
Even at the time I gather you;
For I will give you [b]fame and praise
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I return your captives before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.

Isaiah 54:7-17
New King James Version
7 “For(A) a mere moment I have forsaken you,
But with great mercies (B)I will gather you.
8 With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
(C)But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
Says the Lord, your Redeemer.
9 “For this is like the waters of (D)Noah to Me;
For as I have sworn
That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth,
So have I sworn
That I would not be angry with (E)you, nor rebuke you.
10 For (F)the mountains shall depart
And the hills be removed,
(G)But My kindness shall not depart from you,
Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,”

11 “O you afflicted one,
Tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
Behold, I will lay your stones with (H)colorful gems,

And all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your children shall be (I)taught by the Lord,
And (J)great shall be the peace of your children.
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
Whoever assembles against you shall (K)fall for your sake.
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith
Who blows the coals in the fire,
Who brings forth an [a]instrument for his work;

And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
(M)And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.

Mercy on Jacob
14 For the Lord (A)will have mercy on Jacob, and (B)will still choose Israel, and settle them in their own land. (C)The strangers will be joined with them, and they will cling to the house of Jacob. 2 Then people will take them (D)and bring them to their place, and the house of Israel will possess them for servants and maids in the land of the Lord; they will take them captive whose captives they were, (E)and rule over their oppressors.

Who turns wise men backward,
(F)And makes their knowledge foolishness;

And performs the counsel of His messengers;
Who says to Jerusalem, ‘You shall be inhabited,’
To the cities of Judah, ‘You shall be built,’
And I will raise up her waste places;
