2. The people who walked in darknesshave seen a great light;those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness,on them has light shone.
3. You have multiplied the nation;you have increased its joy;they rejoice before youas with joy at the harvest,as they are glad when they divide the spoil.
4. For the yoke of his burden, and the staff for his shoulder,the rod of his oppressor,you have broken as on the day of Midian.
