¹ Awake! Awake! Put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful robes, O Jerusalem, the holy city. For never again shall uncircumcised and unclean ones come to you.² Shake yourself from the dust; rise up! Sit, Jerusalem; free yourself from your neck bands, O captive daughter of Zion.³ For so says Jehovah: You were sold for nothing, and you will not be redeemed with silver.⁴ For so says the Lord Jehovah: My people went down to Egypt at the first, to reside there, and without cause Assyria oppressed him.⁵ So then what is to Me here, declares Jehovah? For My people is taken for nothing; those ruling howl, declares Jehovah. And My name is continually despised, every day.⁶ So My people shall know My name thus in that day; for I am He speaking. Behold Me!

⁷ How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him proclaiming good news, making peace heard, bearing tidings of good, making heard salvation, saying to Zion, Your God reigns.⁸ The voice of your watchmen, they lift the voice together, they sing aloud. For they shall see eye to eye when Jehovah brings back Zion.⁹ Break out, sing together, waste places of Jerusalem; for Jehovah comforts His people; He has redeemed Jerusalem.¹⁰ Jehovah has bared His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.¹¹ Turn! Turn! Go out from there! Touch not the unclean! Go out of her midst, purify yourselves, bearers of the vessels of Jehovah.¹² For you shall not go out with haste, nor will you go by flight; for Jehovah is going before you, and the God of Israel gathers you.

¹³ Behold, My Servant shall rule wisely; He shall be exalted and lifted up and be very high.¹⁴ Just as many were astonished over You, so much was the disfigurement from man, His appearance and His form from sons of mankind.¹⁵ So He sprinkles from many nations. At Him kings shall shut their mouths; for they will see that which was not told to them; yea, what they had not heard, they will understand.
