9. Let the ruins of Jerusalem break into joyful song,for the lord has comforted his people.He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10. The lord has demonstrated his holy powerbefore the eyes of all the nations.All the ends of the earth will seethe victory of our God.
11. Get out! Get out and leave your captivity,where everything you touch is unclean.Get out of there and purify yourselves,you who carry home the sacred objects of the lord.
12. You will not leave in a hurry,running for your lives.For the lord will go ahead of you;yes, the God of Israel will protect you from behind.
13. See, my servant will prosper;he will be highly exalted.
