They come shouting, “People of Israel, praise the LORD God!”
People of Israel, you come from Jacob's family and the tribe of Judah. You claim to worship me, the LORD God of Israel, but you are lying.
Israel, you will live in safety; your enemies will be gone. The dew will fall from the sky, and you will have plenty of grain and wine.
Shout praises to the LORD! With all my heart I will thank the LORD when his people meet.
Now I stand on solid ground! And when your people meet, I will praise you, LORD.
And don't be like a stream from which just any woman may take a drink.
Honour the LORD when you and your leaders meet to worship.
Miriam the sister of Aaron was a prophet. So she took her tambourine and led the other women out to play their tambourines and to dance.
All who sing or dance will say, “I too am from Zion.”
