Isaiah 11:10–12:6

¹⁰In that day ^xthe root of ^yJesse, who shall stand as ^za signal for the peoples—of him shall the nations inquire, and his resting place shall be glorious.

^11aIn that day the Lord will extend his hand yet a second time to recover the remnant that remains of his people, ^bfrom Assyria, ^bfrom Egypt, from ^cPathros, from ^dCush,¹ from ^eElam, from ^fShinar, from ^gHamath, and from ^hthe coastlands of the sea.

¹²He will raise ^za signal for the nations

and will assemble ⁱthe banished of Israel,

and gather the dispersed of Judah

from the four corners of the earth.

^13jThe jealousy of Ephraim shall depart,

and those who harass Judah shall be cut off;

Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah,

and Judah shall not harass Ephraim.

^14kBut they shall swoop down on the shoulder of the Philistines in the west,

and together they shall plunder ^lthe people of the east.

They shall put out their hand ^magainst ⁿEdom and ^oMoab,

and ^pthe Ammonites shall obey them.

¹⁵And the Lord will utterly destroy²

^qthe tongue of the Sea of Egypt,

and will wave his hand over ^rthe River³

with his scorching breath,⁴

and strike it into seven channels,

and he will lead people across in sandals.

¹⁶And there will be ^sa highway from Assyria

for the remnant that remains of his people,

^tas there was for Israel

when they came up from the land of Egypt.

The Lord Is My Strength and My Song

12You¹ will say ^uin that day:

“I will give thanks to you, O Lord,

for though you were angry with me,

^vyour anger turned away,

that you might comfort me.

²“Behold, God is my salvation;

I will trust, and will not be afraid;

for ^wthe Lord God² is my strength and my song,

and he has become my salvation.”

^3xWith joy you³ will draw water from the wells of salvation. ^4yAnd you will say in that day:

^z“Give thanks to the Lord,

call upon his name,

^amake known his deeds among the peoples,

proclaim ^bthat his name is exalted.

^5c“Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done gloriously;

let this be made known⁴ in all the earth.

⁶Shout, and sing for joy, O inhabitant of Zion,

for great ^din your⁵ midst is ^ethe Holy One of Israel.”
