²⁴ Therefore the Lord, the Lord Almighty,

“Ah! I will vent my wrath on my foes
    and avenge^(B) myself on my enemies.^(C)
25 I will turn my hand against you;^[a](D)
    I will thoroughly purge^(E) away your dross^(F)
    and remove all your impurities.^(G)
26 I will restore your leaders as in days of old,^(H)
    your rulers as at the beginning.
Afterward you will be called^(I)
    the City of Righteousness,^(J)
    the Faithful City.^(K)”

²⁷ Zion will be delivered with justice,
    her penitent^(L) ones with righteousness.^(M)
