Zephaniah 3:14-17
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Rejoice, O daughter Zion: be ye joyful, O Israel: be glad and rejoice with all thine heart, O daughter Jerusalem.
15 The Lord hath taken away thy [a]judgments: he hath cast out thine [b]enemy: the king of Israel, even the Lord is in the midst of [c]thee: thou shalt see no more evil.
16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not, O Zion, let not thine hands be faint.
17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty: he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy: he will quiet himself in [d]his love: he will rejoice over thee with joy.
