25. I will turn my hand against you;I will thoroughly purge away your drossand remove all your impurities.
26. I will restore your leaders as in days of old,your rulers as at the beginning.Afterwards you will be calledthe City of Righteousness,the Faithful City.’
27. Zion will be delivered with justice,her penitent ones with righteousness.
28. But rebels and sinners will both be broken,and those who forsake the Lord will perish.
