In that day you will not be put to shame for all your doings, in which you have transgressed against me; for then I will take away out of the midst of you your proudly exulting ones, and you will no more be haughty in my holy mountain.

From Shame to Forgiveness

Commentators explain that God promises a future where His people will no longer be ashamed of their past sins. This happens for two primary reasons: God graciously forgives and blots out the transgressions of the repentant, and He purifies His community by removing the unrepentant proud. This dual action removes both personal guilt and corporate reproach, allowing believers to stand before God without shame, cleansed by His mercy.
