Zion, you are bringing good news to your people.
    Go up on a high mountain and announce it.
Jerusalem, you are bringing good news to them.
    Shout the message loudly.
Shout it out loud. Don’t be afraid.
    Say to the towns of Judah,
    “Your God is coming!”
10 The Lord and King is coming with power.
    He rules with a powerful arm.
He has set his people free.
    He is bringing them back as his reward.
    He has won the battle over their enemies.
11 He takes care of his flock like a shepherd.
    He gathers the lambs in his arms.
He carries them close to his heart.
    He gently leads those that have little ones.
