English Standard Version

1 Awake, awake, Zion,

clothe yourself with strength!

Put on your garments of splendor,

Jerusalem, the holy city.

The uncircumcised and defiled

will not enter you again.

2 Shake off your dust;

rise up, sit enthroned, Jerusalem.

Free yourself from the chains on your neck,

Daughter Zion, now a captive.

3 For this is what the Lord says:

“You were sold for nothing,

and without money you will be redeemed.”

1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion;

Put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city:

For henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.

2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem:

Loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

3 For thus saith the Lord,

Ye have sold yourselves for nought;

And ye shall be redeemed without money.

1 Wake up, wake up, O Zion!

Clothe yourself with strength.

Put on your beautiful clothes, O holy city of Jerusalem,

for unclean and godless people will enter your gates no longer.

2 Rise from the dust, O Jerusalem.

Sit in a place of honor.

Remove the chains of slavery from your neck,

O captive daughter of Zion.

3 For this is what the Lord says:

“When I sold you into exile,

I received no payment.

Now I can redeem you

without having to pay for you.”

1 Awake, awake!

Put on your strength, O Zion;

Put on your beautiful garments,

O Jerusalem, the holy city!

For the uncircumcised and the unclean

Shall no longer come to you.

2 Shake yourself from the dust, arise;

Sit down, O Jerusalem!

Loose yourself from the bonds of your neck,

O captive daughter of Zion!

3 For thus says the Lord:

“You have sold yourselves for nothing,

And you shall be redeemed without money.”

1 Wake up, wake up, Jerusalem! Become strong!

Be beautiful again,

holy city of Jerusalem.

The people who do not worship God and who are not pure

will not enter you again.

2 Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner.

Now shake off the dust and stand up.

Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner.

Now free yourself from the chains around your neck.

3 This is what the Lord says:

“You were not sold for a price,

so you will be saved without cost.”

1 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, sit on thy throne, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bonds of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

3 For thus saith Jehovah, Ye were sold for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without money.

1 Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, sit down, Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, captive daughter of Zion. 3 For thus saith Jehovah: Ye have sold yourselves for nought, and ye shall be redeemed without money.

1 Wake up! Wake up! Clothe yourself with strength, Zion! 

Put on your beautiful clothes, holy city of Jerusalem. 

Godless and evil people will no longer come to you. 

2 Shake the dust from yourselves. 

Get up, captive Jerusalem. 

Free yourself from the chains around your neck, captive people of Zion. 

3 This is what the Lord says: You were sold, but no price was paid. You will be bought back, but without money. 

1 “Wake up, wake up;

put on your strength, Zion!

Put on your beautiful garments,

Jerusalem, the Holy City!

For the uncircumcised and the unclean

will no longer enter you.

2 Stand up, shake the dust off yourself!

Take your seat, Jerusalem.

Remove the bonds from your neck,

captive Daughter Zion.”

3 For this is what the Lord says:

“You were sold for nothing,

and you will be redeemed without silver.”

1 Awake; awake;

put on your strength, O Zion!

Put on your beautiful garments,

O Jerusalem, the holy city,

for the uncircumcised and the unclean

shall enter you no more.

2 Shake yourself from the dust; rise up,

O captive Jerusalem;

loose the bonds from your neck,

O captive daughter Zion!

3 For thus says the Lord: You were sold for nothing, and you shall be redeemed without money.

1 Awake! Awake; put on your strength, Zion!

Put on the garments of your beauty, Jerusalem, holy city!

For the uncircumcised and the unclean shall not continue to enter you any longer.

2 Shake yourself free from the dust! Rise up; sit, Jerusalem!

Free yourselves from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion!

3 For thus says Yahweh:

“You were sold for nothing,

and you shall be redeemed without money.”

1 Wake up! Zion, wake up!

Dress yourself with strength as if it were your clothes.

Holy city of Jerusalem,

put on your clothes of glory.

Those who haven’t been circumcised will never enter you again.

Neither will those who are “unclean.”

2 Get up, Jerusalem! Shake off your dust.

Take your place on your throne.

Captured people of Zion,

remove the chains from your neck.

3 The Lord says,

“When you were sold as slaves, no one paid anything for you.

Now no one will pay any money to set you free.”

1 Awake, awake,

Clothe yourself in your strength, O Zion;

Clothe yourself in your beautiful garments,

O Jerusalem, the holy city;

For the uncircumcised and the unclean

Will no longer come into you.

2 Shake yourself from the dust, rise up,

O captive Jerusalem;

Loose yourself from the chains around your neck,

O captive daughter of Zion.

3 For thus says the Lord, “You were sold for nothing and you will be redeemed without money.”
