let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.(A)

  1. 14:7 Or restores his captive people

How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of the herald,
who proclaims peace,
who brings news of good things,(A)
who proclaims salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!” (B)
The voices of your watchmen(C)
they lift up their voices,
shouting for joy together;
for every eye will see
when the Lord returns to Zion.
Be joyful, rejoice together,
you ruins of Jerusalem!(D)
For the Lord has comforted his people;(E)
he has redeemed Jerusalem.

Restoration of the Land

18 This is what the Lord says:

I will certainly restore the fortunes[a] of Jacob’s tents(A)
and show compassion(B) on his dwellings.
Every city will be rebuilt on its mound;
every citadel will stand on its proper site.
19 Thanksgiving will come out of them,
a sound of rejoicing.
I will multiply them, and they will not decrease;(C)
I will honor them, and they will not be insignificant.
