    and they shall be radiant over the goodness of the Lord,

    and they shall never languish again.^(A)
13 Then shall the young women rejoice in the dance,
    and the young men and the old shall be merry.^[a]
I will turn their mourning into joy;
    I will comfort them and give them gladness for sorrow.^(B)

Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
    with calves a year old?

⁷ Let the assembly of the peoples be gathered around you,
