Zephaniah 3:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
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 [a]his love: he will rejoice over thee with joy.
18 After a certain time will I gather the afflicted that were of thee, and them that bare the reproach for [b]it.
19 Behold, at that time I will bruise all that afflict thee, and I will [c]save her that halteth, and gather her that was cast out, and I will get them praise and fame in all the [d]lands of their shame.
