A Song of Salvation

12 In that day you will say:
    I will give thanks to you, Lord,
    for though you were angry with me,
    your anger has turned away,
    and you comfort me.
    Surely God is my salvation.
    I will trust him and will not be afraid,
    because Yah, the Lord,[a] is my strength and song,
    and he has become my salvation.
Therefore with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.
In that day you will say:
Give thanks to the Lord! Proclaim[b] his name.
Declare among the peoples what he has done.
Proclaim that his name is exalted!
Sing to the Lord, for he has done amazing things!
Let this be known in all the earth!
Shout aloud and sing for joy, daughter[c] of Zion,
for the Holy One of Israel is great among you!

12 And in that day thou shalt say, O Lord, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me.

Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.

Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

And in that day shall ye say, Praise the Lord, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.

Sing unto the Lord; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth.

Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.
