30Then I will praise God’s name with singing,

and I will honor him with thanksgiving.

31For this will please the Lord more than sacrificing cattle,

more than presenting a bull with its horns and hooves.

32The humble will see their God at work and be glad.

Let all who seek God’s help be encouraged.

33For the Lord hears the cries of the needy;

he does not despise his imprisoned people.

34Praise him, O heaven and earth,

the seas and all that move in them.

35For God will save Jerusalem^d

and rebuild the towns of Judah.

His people will live there

and settle in their own land.

36The descendants of those who obey him will inherit the land,

and those who love him will live there in safety.
