Isaiah:52
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Arise ,
arise ,
put on thy strength ,
O Sion ,
put on the garments of thy glory ,
O Jerusalem ,
the city of the Holy One :
for henceforth the uncircumcised ,
and unclean shall no more pass through thee .
*
Shake thyself from the dust ,
arise ,
sit up ,
O Jerusalem :
loose the bonds from off thy neck ,
O captive daughter of Sion .
*
For thus saith the Lord :
You were sold gratis ,
and you shall be redeemed without money .
*
For thus saith the Lord God :
My people went down into Egypt at the beginning to sojourn there :
and the Assyrian hath oppressed them without any cause at all .
*
And now what have I here ,
saith the Lord :
for my people is taken away gratis .
They that rule over them treat them unjustly ,
saith the Lord ,
and my name is continually blasphemed all the day long .
*
Therefore my people shall know my name in that day :
for I myself that spoke ,
behold I am here .
*
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings ,
and that preacheth peace :
of him that sheweth forth good ,
that preacheth salvation ,
that saith to Sion :
Thy God shall reign !
*
The voice of thy watchmen :
they have lifted up their voice ,
they shah praise together :
for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord shall convert Sion
*
Rejoice ,
and give praise together ,
O ye deserts of Jerusalem :
for the Lord hath comforted his people :
he hath redeemed Jerusalem .
*
The Lord hath prepared his holy arm in the sight of all the Gentiles :
and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God .
*
Depart ,
depart ,
go ye out from thence ,
touch no unclean thing :
go out of the midst of her ,
be ye clean ,
you that carry the vessels of the Lord .
*
For you shall not go out in a tumult ,
neither shall you make haste by flight :
For the Lord will go before you ,
and the God of Israel will gather you together .
*
Behold my servant shall understand ,
he shall be exalted ,
and extolled ,
and shall be exceeding high .
*
As many have been astonished at thee ,
so shall his visage be inglorious among men ,
and his form among the sons of men .
*
He shall sprinkle many nations ,
kings shall shut their mouth at him :
for they to whom it was not told of him ,
have seen :
and they that heard not ,
have beheld .
