8Do not rejoice, my enemy, over me, for though I have fallen I rise; for though I dwell in darkness, the LORD is light to me.9I will bear the rage of the LORD, for I have sinned against him, until he pleads my cause and executes my justice; he will bring me out to the light, and I shall see his righteousness.10Then my enemy will see, and shame will cover her, she who says to me, "Where is the LORD your God?" My eyes will behold her; now she will be trampled like the mud of the streets.11It is a day for the building of your walls; on that day the decree will be far removed.12On that day he will come to you from Assyria and from the cities of siege, and from Egypt and as far as the river and the sea, from sea to mountain and mount.13And the land will become a desolation because of its inhabitants, on account of the fruit of their deeds.
