16 On that day, it shall be said to Jerusalem:Do not fear, Zion,do not be discouraged!
17 The Lord, your God, is in your midst,a mighty savior,Who will rejoice over you with gladness,and renew you in his love,Who will sing joyfully because of you,
18 as on festival days.I will remove disaster from among you,so that no one may recount your disgrace.
19 At that time I will dealwith all who oppress you;I will save the lame,and assemble the outcasts;I will give them praise and renownin every land where they were shamed.
20 At that time I will bring you home,and at that time I will gather you;For I will give you renown and praise,among all the peoples of the earth,When I bring about your restorationbefore your very eyes, says the Lord.
