Zephaniah 3:17

The LORD thy God in the midst of thee [is] mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

The LORD {H3068} thy God {H430} in the midst {H7130} of thee is mighty {H1368}; he will save {H3467}, he will rejoice {H7797} over thee with joy {H8057}; he will rest {H2790} in his love {H160}, he will joy {H1523} over thee with singing {H7440}.

ADONAI your God is right there with you, as a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you and be glad, he will be silent in his love, he will shout over you with joy."

The LORD your God is among you; He is mighty to save. He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you with His love; He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Jehovah thy God is in the midst of thee, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love; he will joy over thee with singing.
