Yahweh’s Joy in Restoring Israel
14 Sing for joy, O daughter of Zion!
(A)Make a loud shout, O Israel!
Be glad and exult with all your heart,
O daughter of Jerusalem!
15 Yahweh has taken away (B)His judgments against you;
He has cleared away your enemies.
The King of Israel, Yahweh, is (C)in your midst;
You will (D)fear evil no more.
16 (E)In that day it will be said to Jerusalem:
“(F)Do not fear, O Zion;
(G)Do not let your hands fall limp.
17 Yahweh your God is (H)in your midst,
A (I)mighty one who will save.
He will (J)be joyful over you with gladness;
He will [a]be quiet in His love;
He will rejoice over you with joyful singing.
