Zephaniah 3:16-20

New King James Version

¹⁶ In that day ^(A)it shall be said to Jerusalem:
“Do not fear;
Zion, ^(B)let not your hands be weak.
¹⁷ The Lord your God ^(C)in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
^(D)He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.”

¹⁸ “I will gather those who ^(E)sorrow over the appointed assembly,
Who are among you,
To whom its reproach is a burden.
¹⁹ Behold, at that time
I will deal with all who afflict you;
I will save the ^(F)lame,
And gather those who were driven out;
I will appoint them for praise and fame
In every land where they were put to shame.
²⁰ At that time ^(G)I will bring you back,
Even at the time I gather you;
For I will give you ^[a]fame and praise
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I return your captives before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.
