Rejoicing in God’s salvation

25 Lord, you are my God.
I will exalt you; I will praise your name,
    for you have done wonderful things,
        planned long ago, faithful and sure.
You have turned the city into rubble,
    the fortified town into a ruin,
    the fortress of foreigners into a city no more,
    never to be rebuilt.
Therefore, strong people will glorify you;
    the towns of tyrant nations will fear you.
