3So with joy will you get water out of the springs of salvation.
4And in that day you will say, Give praise to the Lord, let his name be honoured, give word of his doings among the peoples, say that his name is lifted up.
5Make a song to the Lord; for he has done noble things: give news of them through all the earth.
6Let your voice be sounding in a cry of joy, O daughter of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.
