Zephaniah 3:16-20

16 1On that day it will be said to Jerusalem: “2Do not be afraid, Zion; 3Do not let your hands fall limp.17The Lord your God is 4in your midst, A 5 6victorious warrior. He will 7rejoice over you with joy, He will 8be quiet in His love, He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.18I will gather those who are 9worried about the appointed feasts-- They 10came from you, Zion; The disgrace of exile is a burden on 11them.19Behold, I am going to deal at that time With all your 12oppressors; I will save 13those who limp And gather the scattered, And I will turn their 14shame into 15praise and fame In all the earth.20At that time I will 16bring you in, Even at the time when I gather you together; Indeed, I will make you 17famous and praiseworthy Among all the peoples of the earth, When I 18restore your fortunes before your eyes,” Says the Lord.
