11 ^m“On that day ⁿyou shall not be put to shame
because of the deeds by which you have rebelled against me;
for then ^oI will remove from your midst
your proudly exultant ones,
and ^pyou shall no longer be haughty
in my holy mountain.
12 But I will leave in your midst
a people ^qhumble and lowly.
^rThey shall seek refuge in the name of the Lord,
13 ^sthose who are left in Israel;

and speak no lies,
^unor shall there be found in their mouth
a deceitful tongue.
^vFor they shall graze and lie down,
and none shall make them afraid.”

and ^zI will answer them.
^aaI will say, ‘They are my people’;
and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”

5 “Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be ^aha swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those ^aiwho oppress the hired worker in his wages, ^ajthe widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts.
