Israel’s Future Joys

14 “Sing aloud, daughter of Zion!
    Shout out, Israel!
        Rejoice with all of your heart, daughter of Jerusalem!
15 The Lord has acquitted you;[a]
    turning back your adversaries.
Israel’s king, the Lord, is among you;
    you will not fear disaster anymore.

16 “When all of this happens,[b] it will be told Jerusalem,
    ‘Don’t be afraid!”
and to Zion,
    ‘Don’t lose courage!”[c]
17 The Lord your God among you is powerful—
    he will save
and he will take joyful delight in you.
    In his love he will renew you[d] with his love;
        he will celebrate with singing because of you.
