Isaiah 52:7-12

7How delightful on the mountains Are the feet of one who brings 1good news, Who announces 2peace And brings good news of 3happiness, Who announces salvation, And says to Zion, “Your 4God 5reigns!”8Listen! Your watchmen raise their 6voices, They shout joyfully together; For they will see 7with their own eyes When the Lord restores Zion.9 8Be cheerful, shout joyfully together, You 9ruins of Jerusalem; For the Lord has comforted His people, He has 10redeemed Jerusalem.10The Lord has bared His holy 11arm In the sight of all the nations, 12So that 13all the ends of the earth may see The salvation of our God.

11 14Depart, depart, go out from there, 15Do not touch what is unclean; Go out of the midst of her, 16purify yourselves, You who carry the vessels of the Lord.12But you will not go out in 17a hurry, Nor will you go 18as fugitives; For the 19Lord will go before you, And 20the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
