Mercy on Jacob

1 For the Lord awill have mercy on Jacob, and bwill still choose Israel, and settle them in their own land. cThe strangers will be joined with them, and they will cling to the house of Jacob.  
2 Then people will take them aand bring them to their place, and the house of Israel will possess them for servants and maids in the land of the Lord; they will take them captive whose captives they were, band rule over their oppressors.  

Fall of the King of Babylon

3 It shall come to pass in the day the Lord gives you rest from your sorrow, and from your fear and the hard bondage in which you were made to serve,
4 that you awill take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say:
“How the oppressor has ceased,
The bgolden city ceased! 
5 The Lord has broken athe staff of the wicked,
The scepter of the rulers; 
6 He who struck the people in wrath with a continual stroke,
He who ruled the nations in anger,
Is persecuted and no one hinders.
7 The whole earth is at rest and quiet;
They break forth into singing.
8 aIndeed the cypress trees rejoice over you,
And the cedars of Lebanon,
Saying, ‘Since you1 were cut down,
No woodsman has come up against us.’ 
9 “Hell1a from beneath is excited about you,
To meet you at your coming;
It stirs up the dead for you,
All the chief ones of the earth;
It has raised up from their thrones
All the kings of the nations.
