11. On that day you will no longer be ashamedof all your rebellious acts against me.Then I will remove your arroganceand never again will you act proud on my holy mountain.
12. So with you I will leave a faithful few, a humble and poor people.They will seek refuge in the name of the Lord.
13. The faithful few in Israel will not do wrong, tell lies,or use their tongues to deceive others.They will graze their sheep and lie down,and there will be no one to terrify them.”
14. Sing happily, people of Zion!Shout loudly, Israel!Celebrate and rejoice with all your heart, people of Jerusalem.
15. The Lord has reversed the judgments against you.He has forced out your enemies.The king of Israel, the Lord, is with you.You will never fear disaster again.
16. On that day Jerusalem will be told,“Do not be afraid, Zion!Do not lose courage!”
17. The Lord your God is with you.He is a hero who saves you.He happily rejoices over you,renews you with his love,and celebrates over you with shouts of joy.
