Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy the good food and sweet drinks. And give some food and drinks to those people that didn’t prepare any food. Today is a special day to the Lord. Don’t be sad! Why? Because the joy of the Lord will make you strong.”
God will make his people strong.\par People will praise God’s followers.\par People will praise Israel.\par They are the people God fights for.\par Praise the Lord!\par
But you will make me strong.\par I will be like a ram with strong horns.\par \{You chose me for my special work;\}\par you poured your refreshing oil over me.\par
The Lord destroys his enemies.
God Most-High will thunder in heaven against people.
The Lord will judge even the faraway lands.
He will give power to his king.
He will make his special king strong.”
