< Isaiah 52 >

1 Awake awake put on strength your O Zion put on - [the] garments of beauty your O Jerusalem [the] city of holiness for not he will repeat he will come in you again an uncircumcised [man] and an unclean [person].
Awake, awake, put on thy majesty, O Zion! Put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For no more shall come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 Shake yourself free from [the] dust arise sit O Jerusalem (loosen for yourself *Q(K)*) [the] fetters of neck your O captive [one] [the] daughter of Zion.
Shake thyself from the dust, Arise and sit erect, O Jerusalem! Loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion!
3 For thus he says Yahweh for nothing you were sold and not with money you will be redeemed.
For thus saith Jehovah: For naught were ye sold, And without money shall ye be ransomed.
4 For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh Egypt it went down people my at the former [time] to sojourn there and Assyria for nothing it oppressed it.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: My people went down to Egypt formerly to sojourn there, And the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 And therefore (what? *Q(K)*) ([belongs] to me *Q(k)*) here [the] utterance of Yahweh that it was taken people my for nothing (rulers its *Q(K)*) they wail [the] utterance of Yahweh and continually all the day name my [is] reviled.
And now, what have I here to do, saith the Lord, When my people is taken away for naught, And their tyrants exult, saith Jehovah, And all the day long my name is blasphemed.
6 Therefore it will know people my name my therefore in the day that that I [am] he who is speaking here [am] I.
Therefore shall my people know my name; Therefore in that day shall they know That I am he that said, Behold, here am I!
7 How! they are beautiful on the mountains [the] feet of [one who] bears news [one who] proclaims peace [one who] bears news good [one who] proclaims salvation [one who] says to Zion he reigns God your.
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, of him that proclaimeth peace! That bringeth good tidings, that proclaimeth salvation! That saith to Zion, “Thy God is king!”
8 [the] voice of Watchmen your they will lift up a voice together they will shout for joy for eye in eye they will see when returns Yahweh Zion.
Hark! the voice of thy watchmen! They lift up the voice together; yea, they shout! For eye to eye shall they behold, When Jehovah returneth to Zion.
9 Break forth shout for joy together O waste places of Jerusalem for he has comforted Yahweh people his he has redeemed Jerusalem.
Break forth into joy; shout together, ye ruins of Jerusalem! For Jehovah hath pity on his people; he redeemeth Jerusalem.
10 He has bared Yahweh [the] arm of holiness his to [the] eyes of all the nations and they will see all [the] ends of [the] earth [the] salvation of God our.
Jehovah maketh bare his holy arm In the sight of all the nations; All the ends of the earth Behold the salvation from our God.
11 Depart depart go out from there an unclean [thing] may not you touch go out from [the] midst of it purify yourselves O bearers of [the] vessels of Yahweh.
Depart, depart ye; go ye out from thence; Touch no unclean thing! Go ye out from the midst of her; Be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of Jehovah!
12 For not in haste you will go out and in flight not you will go! for [will be] going before you Yahweh and [will be] rearguard your [the] God of Israel.
For not in haste shall ye go forth, Nor in flight shall ye pass along; For Jehovah shall march in your front, And the God of Israel bring up your rear.
13 There! he will prosper servant my he will be high and he will be lifted up and he will be exalted exceedingly.
Behold, my servant shall prosper; He shall be lifted up, and set on high, and greatly exalted.
14 Just as they were appalled on you many [people] so [was] a disfigurement from a person appearance his and form his from [the] children of humankind.
As many were amazed at the sight of him, —So disfigured and scarcely human was his visage, And so unlike that of a man was his form, —
15 So he will startle nations many on him they will shut kings mouth their for [that] which not it had been recounted to them they will see and [that] which not they had heard they will understand.
So shall he cause many nations to exult on account of him; Kings shall shut their mouths before him. For what had never been told them shall they see, And what they never heard shall they perceive.
