12But I will leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor people, and they will take refuge in the name of Yahweh.
13The remnant of Israel will not do iniquity, nor speak lies, neither will a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth, for they will feed and lie down, and no one will make them afraid."
14Sing, daughter of Zion! Shout, Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem.
15Yahweh has taken away your judgments. He has thrown out your enemy. The King of Israel, Yahweh, is in the midst of you. You will not be afraid of evil any more.
16In that day, it will be said to Jerusalem, "Don`t be afraid, Zion. Don`t let your hands be slack."
17Yahweh, your God, is in the midst of you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will rest in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.
18Those who are sad for the appointed feasts, I will remove from you. They are a burden and a reproach to you.
