Isaiah:52:1-6

* Awake , awake ; put on thy strength , O Zion ; put on thy beautiful garments , O Jerusalem , the holy city : for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean . * Shake thyself from the dust ; arise , and sit down , O Jerusalem : loose thyself from the bands of thy neck tsavva #r #, O captive daughter of Zion . * For thus saith the LORD , Ye have sold yourselves for nought ; and ye shall be redeemed without money . * For thus saith the Lord GOD , My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there ; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause . * 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 my name continually every day is blasphemed . * Therefore my people shall know my name : therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak : behold , it is I .
