Isaiah 52:1-8

1AwakeH5782, awakeH5782, clothe yourselfH3847 with strengthH5797, O ZionH6726! Put onH3847 your garmentsH899 of splendorH8597, O JerusalemH3389, holyH6944 cityH5892! ForH3588 the uncircumcisedH6189 and uncleanH2931 will noH3808 longerH3254 H5750 enterH935 you.2Shake offH5287 your dustH6083! Rise upH6965 and sitH7628 on your throne, O JerusalemH3389. RemoveH6605 the chainsH4147 from your neckH6677, O captiveH7628 DaughterH1323 of ZionH6726.

3ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

“You were soldH4376 for nothingH2600,and withoutH3808 moneyH3701 you will be redeemedH1350.”

4ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LordH136 GODH3069 saysH559:

“At firstH7223 My peopleH5971 went downH3381 to EgyptH4714 to liveH1481 H8033,then AssyriaH804 oppressed themH6231 without causeH657.5And nowH6258 whatH4310 have I hereH6311?declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.ForH3588 My peopleH5971 have been takenH3947 without causeH2600;those who rule themH4910 tauntH3213,1declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,and My nameH8034 is blasphemedH5006 continuallyH8548all day longH3605 H3117.26ThereforeH3651 My peopleH5971 will knowH3045 My nameH8034;thereforeH3651 they will knowH1931 on that dayH3117thatH3588 IH589 am HeH1931 who speaksH1696.Here I amH2005!”

7HowH4100 beautifulH4998 onH5921 the mountainsH2022are the feetH7272 of those who bring good newsH1319,3who proclaimH8085 peaceH7965, who bringH1319 good tidingsH2896,who proclaimH8085 salvationH3444,who sayH559 to ZionH6726, “Your GodH430 reignsH4427!”8ListenH6963! Your watchmenH6822 lift upH5375 their voicesH6963,togetherH3162 they shout for joyH7442.ForH3588 every eyeH5869 will seeH7200when the LORDH3068 returnsH7725 to ZionH6726.
