JOY Isaiah 52:9

Burst into songs of joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.

Burst into songs of joy together 
Psalm 98:4  Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; ...
Isaiah 35:1-2  The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the LORD, the splendor of our God.

you ruins of Jerusalem 
Psalm 74:3  Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins, all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary.
Isaiah 51:3  "The LORD will surely comfort Zion and will look with compassion on all her ruins; he will make her deserts like Eden, her wastelands like the garden of the LORD. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the sound of singing."

for the LORD has comforted his people 
Isaiah 40:1  Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.
Luke 2:25-26  Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord's Messiah.

he has redeemed Jerusalem 
Ezra 9:9  "Though we are slaves, our God has not forsaken us in our bondage. He has shown us kindness in the sight of the kings of Persia: He has granted us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins, and he has given us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem."
Isaiah 48:20  Leave Babylon, flee from the Babylonians! Announce this with shouts of joy and proclaim it. Send it out to the ends of the earth; say, "The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob."
