Isaiah 52:1-6
11Awake, awake, Clothe yourself in your strength, O Zion; Clothe yourself in your 2beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the 3holy city; For the uncircumcised and the 4unclean Will no longer come into you.2Shake yourself 5from the dust, 6rise up, O captive Jerusalem; 7Loose yourself from the chains around your neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
3For thus says the Lord, “You were 8sold for nothing and you will be 9redeemed 10without money.” 4For thus says the Lord 11God, “My people 12went down at the first into Egypt to reside there; then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. 5Now therefore, what do I have here,” declares the Lord, “seeing that My people have been taken away without cause?” Again the Lord declares, “Those who rule over them howl, and My 13name is continually blasphemed all day long. 6Therefore My people shall 14know My name; therefore in that day I am the one who is speaking, ‘Here I am.’”
