Zephaniah 3:15-19

15The Lord has taken away 1His judgments against you, He has cleared away your enemies. The King of Israel, the Lord, is 2in your midst; You will no longer 3fear disaster.16 4On that day it will be said to Jerusalem: “5Do not be afraid, Zion; 6Do not let your hands fall limp.17The Lord your God is 7in your midst, A 8 9victorious warrior. He will 10rejoice over you with joy, He will 11be quiet in His love, He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.18I will gather those who are 12worried about the appointed feasts-- They 13came from you, Zion; The disgrace of exile is a burden on 14them.19Behold, I am going to deal at that time With all your 15oppressors; I will save 16those who limp And gather the scattered, And I will turn their 17shame into 18praise and fame In all the earth.
