aAwake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion;

Put on bthy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, cthe holy city:

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

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

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

3  For thus saith the Lord,

gYe have sold yourselves hfor nought;

And iye shall be redeemed without money.

4  For thus saith the Lord God,

kMy people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there;

And the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.

5  Now therefore, what have I here, saith the Lord,

That my people is taken away for nought?

They that rule over them make them to howl, saith the Lord;

And lmy name continually every day is mblasphemed.

6  Therefore my people shall know my name:

Therefore they shall know nin that day othat I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

7  pHow beautiful qupon the mountains are rthe feet of him sthat bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace;

sThat bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation;

That saith unto Zion, tThy God reigneth!

8  Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice;

With the voice together shall they sing:

For uthey shall see eye to eye,

When the Lord shall bring again Zion.

9  vBreak forth into joy, sing together, wye waste places of Jerusalem:

xFor the Lord hath comforted his people, yhe hath redeemed Jerusalem.

10  The Lord hath made bare zhis holy arm in the eyes of all the nations;

aAnd ball the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.

11  cDepart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing;

Go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, dthat bear the vessels of the Lord.

12  For eye shall not go out fwith haste,

Nor go by flight:

gFor the Lord will go before you;

And gthe God of Israel will †be your rereward.

13  Behold, hmy servant shall ||deal prudently,

iHe shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.

14  As many kwere astonied at thee;

lHis visage was so marred more than any man,

And his form more than the sons of men:

15  So mshall he sprinkle many nations;

nThe kings shall shut their mouths at him:

For othat which had not been told them shall they see;

And that which they had not heard shall they consider.
