8  “Therefore wait for me,” declares the Lord,

“for the day when I rise up to seize the prey.

For my decision is to gather nations,

to assemble kingdoms,

to ^qpour out upon them my indignation,

all my burning anger;

for ^rin the fire of my jealousy

all the earth shall be consumed.

9  “For at that time ^sI will change the speech of the peoples

to a pure speech,

that all of them may call upon the name of the Lord

and serve him with one accord.

11  “On that day you shall not be put to shame

because of the deeds by which you have rebelled against me;

for then I will remove from your midst

your proudly exultant ones,

and you shall no longer be haughty

in my holy mountain.

13  those who are left in Israel;

they shall do no injustice

and speak no lies,

^unor shall there be found in their mouth

a deceitful tongue.

For they shall graze and lie down,

and ^vnone shall make them afraid.”

14  ^wSing aloud, O daughter of Zion;

shout, O Israel!

Rejoice and exult with all your heart,

O daughter of Jerusalem!

15  The Lord has taken away the judgments against you;

he has cleared away your enemies.

The King of Israel, the Lord, is ^xin your midst;

you shall never again fear evil.

16  On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem:

“Fear not, O Zion;

^ylet not your hands grow weak.

17  The Lord your God is in your midst,

a mighty one who will save;

he will ^zrejoice over you with gladness;

he will quiet you by his love;

he will exult over you with loud singing.
