^9 [a]It will be to Me a ^(A)name of joy, praise, and glory before ^(B)all the nations of the earth, which will hear of all the ^(C)good that I do for them, and they will be ^(D)frightened and tremble because of all the good and all the peace that I make for it.’

¹⁰ “This is what the Lord says: ‘Yet again there will be heard in this place, of which you say, “It is a ^(E)waste, without man and without animal,” that is, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are ^(F)deserted, without man and without inhabitant and without animal, ¹¹ the voice of ^(G)joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the groom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say,

as they bring a ^(I)thanksgiving offering into the house of the Lord. For I will restore the fortunes of the land as they were at first,’ says the Lord.
