30. I will sing praises to God’s name!I will magnify him as I give him thanks!
31. That will please the Lord more than an ox or a bullwith horns and hooves.
32. The oppressed look on – let them rejoice!You who seek God, may you be encouraged!
33. For the Lord listens to the needy;he does not despise his captive people.
34. Let the heavens and the earth praise him,along with the seas and everything that swims in them!
35. For God will deliver Zionand rebuild the cities of Judah,and his people will again live in them and possess Zion.
36. The descendants of his servants will inherit it,and those who are loyal to him will live in it.
