17 “The Lord your God is (A)in your midst,
A [a](B)victorious warrior.
He will (C)exult over you with joy,
He will [b]be quiet in His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.
18 “I will gather those who (D)grieve about the appointed feasts—
They [c]came from you, O Zion;
The reproach of exile is a burden on [d]them.
19 “Behold, I am going to deal at that time
With all your (E)oppressors,
I will save the (F)lame
And gather the outcast,
And I will turn their (G)shame into (H)praise and renown
In all the earth.
