Zephaniah 3:18-20
International Children’s Bible
18 “I will take away the sadness planned for you.
It would have made you very ashamed.
19 At that time I will punish
all those who harmed you.
I will save my people who are hurt.
I will gather my people who are scattered.
I will give them praise and honor
in every place where they were disgraced.
20 At that time I will gather you.
At that time I will bring you back home.
I will give you honor and praise
from people everywhere.
That will happen when I give you back your riches.
You will see this with your own eyes,” says the Lord.

18 “I will remove from you
all who mourn over the loss of your appointed festivals,
which is a burden and reproach for you.

I will rescue the lame;
I will gather the exiles.(B)
I will give them praise(C) and honor
in every land where they have suffered shame.
20 At that time I will gather you;
at that time I will bring(D) you home.
I will give you honor(E) and praise(F)
among all the peoples of the earth
when I restore your fortunes[a](G)
before your very eyes,”
says the Lord.
