⁶ Cry out and sing, citizen of Zion,
for the Holy One of Israel^(A) is among you
in His greatness.”

³² What answer will be given to the messengers from that nation?
The Lord has founded Zion,^(A)
and His afflicted people find refuge in her.

²³ The moon will be put to shame
and the sun disgraced,
because the Lord of Hosts will reign as king
on Mount Zion in Jerusalem,
and He will display His glory
in the presence of His elders.^(A)

¹⁹ Listen—the cry of my dear^[a] people
from a far away land,
“Is the Lord no longer in Zion,^(A)
her King not within her?”
Why have they provoked me to anger
with their carved images,
with their worthless foreign idols?^(B)

⁹ Why are You like a helpless man,
like a warrior unable to save?^(A)
Yet You are among us, Yahweh,^(B)
and we are called by Your name.
Don’t leave us!

²¹ I will pardon their bloodguilt,^[a](A)
which I have not pardoned,
for the Lord dwells in Zion.
