11 For the Lord has (A)ransomed Jacob
And redeemed him from the hand of him who was (B)stronger than he.
12 “They will (C)come and shout for joy on the (D)height of Zion,
And they will be (E)radiant over the [a]bounty of the Lord
Over the (F)grain, the new wine, the oil,
And over the young of the (G)flock and the herd.
And their life will be like a (H)watered garden,
And they will (I)never languish again.
13 Then the virgin will rejoice in the (J)dance,
And the young men and the old together;
For I will (K)turn their mourning into joy
And comfort them, and give them (L)joy for their sorrow.
