Isaiah 52
American Standard Version
1AwakeH5782, awakeH5782, putH3847 on thy strengthH5797, O ZionH6726; putH3847 on thy beautiful garmentsH899, O JerusalemH3389, the holyH6944 cityH5892: for henceforth there shall no more comeH935 into thee the uncircumcisedH6189 and the uncleanH2931. 2ShakeH5287 thyself from the dustH6083; ariseH6965, sitH3427 on thy throne, O JerusalemH3389: loose thyself from the bonds of thy neckH6677, O captive daughterH1323 of ZionH6726.
3For thusH3541 saith Jehovah, Ye were soldH4376 for nought; and ye shall be redeemedH1350 without moneyH3701. 4For thusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah, My peopleH5971 wentH3381 downH3381 at the firstH7223 into EgyptH4714 to sojourn there: and the Assyrian hath oppressedH6231 them without cause. 5NowH6258 thereforeH6258, what do I hereH6311, saith Jehovah, seeing that my peopleH5971 is takenH3947 awayH3947 for nought? they that ruleH4910 over them do howl, saith Jehovah, and my nameH8034 continuallyH8548 all the dayH3117 is blasphemed. 6ThereforeH3651 my peopleH5971 shall knowH3045 my nameH8034: thereforeH3651 they shall knowH3045 in that dayH3117 that I am he that doth speakH1696; behold, it is I.
7HowH4100 beautiful upon the mountainsH2022 are the feetH7272 of him that bringeth goodH2896 tidings, that publisheth peaceH7965, that bringeth goodH2896 tidings of goodH2896, that publisheth salvationH3444, that saith unto ZionH6726, Thy GodH430 reigneth! 8The voiceH6963 of thy watchmenH6822! they liftH5375 up the voiceH6963, togetherH3162 do they singH7442; for they shall seeH7200 eyeH5869 to eyeH5869, when Jehovah returneth to ZionH6726. 9BreakH6476 forthH6476 into joyH7442, singH7442 togetherH3162, ye wasteH2723 placesH2723 of JerusalemH3389; for Jehovah hath comfortedH5162 his peopleH5971, he hath redeemedH1350 JerusalemH3389. 10Jehovah hath made bareH2834 his holyH6944 armH2220 in the eyesH5869 of all the nationsH1471; and all the endsH657 of the earthH776 have seenH7200 the salvationH3444 of our GodH430.
11DepartH5493 ye, departH5493 ye, goH3318 ye out from thence, touchH5060 no uncleanH2931 thingH3627; goH3318 ye out of the midstH8432 of her; cleanse yourselves, ye that bearH5375 the vesselsH3627 of Jehovah. 12For ye shall not goH1980 out in hasteH2649, neither shall ye goH1980 by flight: for Jehovah will goH1980 before you; and the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 will be your rearward.
13Behold, my servantH5650 shall deal wisely, he shall be exaltedH7311 and liftedH5375 up, and shall be veryH3966 highH7311. 14Like as manyH7227 were astonished at thee (his visage was soH3651 marred more than any manH376, and his formH8389 more than the sonsH1121 of menH376), 15soH3651 shall he sprinkle manyH7227 nationsH1471; kingsH4428 shall shutH7092 their mouthsH6310 at him: for that which had not been told them shall they seeH7200; and that which they had not heardH8085 shall they understandH995.
