18 I will gather those of you grieving on account of the feast;
    they were raising against her a reproach.
19 Behold, at that time I will deal with all your oppressors;
    I will save the lame and gather the outcast.
I will change[a] them from shame
    to glory and renown[b] throughout the whole world.
20 At that time I will bring you in;
    at the time of my gathering you together.
For I will make you renowned[c] and praised
    among all the nations of the earth
when I restore your fortunes before your eyes,”
    says Yahweh.

18 I will gather those who are (A)worried about the appointed feasts—
They [a]came from you, Zion;
The disgrace of exile is a burden on [b]them.
19 Behold, I am going to deal at that time
With all your (B)oppressors;
I will save (C)those who limp
And gather the scattered,
And I will turn their (D)shame into (E)praise and fame
In all the earth.
20 At that time I will (F)bring you in,
Even at the time when I gather you together;
Indeed, I will make you (G)famous and praiseworthy
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I (H)restore your fortunes before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.
