“In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack.”
On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: 'Fear not, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak. The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing—the assurance addresses Jerusalem's fear and weakness; God's mighty presence promises salvation. The description of God's emotional response—rejoicing with gladness, exulting with loud singing—depicts divine delight in the remnant. God's love actively quiets and reassures.
