be strong, and let your heart take courage;
wait for the Lord! - “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are beneficial. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.

will sacrifice to you;
what I have vowed I will pay.

who brings good news,
who announces salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.”
