Isaiah 52:1-7 (New Living Translation)
View In My Bible
1
Wake up, wake up, O Zion! Clothe yourselves with strength. Put on your beautiful clothes, O holy city of Jerusalem, for unclean and godless people will no longer enter your gates.
2
Rise from the dust, O Jerusalem. Remove the slave bands 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 paying for you."
4
This is what the Sovereign LORD says: "Long ago my people went to live as resident foreigners in Egypt. Now they have been oppressed without cause by Assyria.
5
And now, what is this?" asks the LORD. "Why are my people enslaved again? Those who rule them shout in exultation. My name is being blasphemed all day long.
6
But I will reveal my name to my people, and they will come to know its power. Then at last they will recognize that it is I who speaks to them."
7
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news of peace and salvation, the news that the God of Israel a reigns!
