Instead of your shame and confusion, A second time they sing of their portion, Therefore in their land A second time do they take possession, Joy age-during [is] for them.

    I hate robbery and wrongdoing.
In my faithfulness I will reward my people
    and make an everlasting covenant(F) with them.

    and their offspring among the peoples.
All who see them will acknowledge
    that they are a people the Lord has blessed.”(H)
