Nevertheless the
dimness shall not be such as was in her
vexation, when at the
first he lightly
afflicted the
land of
Zebulun and the
land of
Naphtali, and
afterward did more grievously
afflict her by the
way of the
sea, beyond Jordan, in
Galilee of the
nations.

dwell in the
land of the shadow of
death, upon them hath the
light shined.

Thou hast
multiplied the
nation, and not
increased the
joy: they

joy in

rejoice when they
divide the
spoil.

throne of
David, and upon his
kingdom, to
order it, and to
establish it with

for ever. The
zeal of the
LORD of
hosts will
perform this.
