Isaiah 以赛亚书52

52Awake, awake, O Zion, clothe yourself with strength. Put on your garments of splendor¹, O Jerusalem, the holy city. The uncircumcised and defiled² will not enter you again.
2Shake off your dust; rise up, sit enthroned, O Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck, O captive Daughter of Zion.
3For this is what the Lord says: "You were sold for nothing, and without money you will be redeemed³."
4For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: "At first my people went down to Egypt to live; lately, Assyria has oppressed them.
5"And now what do I have here?" declares the Lord . "For my people have been taken away for nothing, and those who rule them mock, " declares the Lord . "And all day long my name is constantly blasphemed.
6Therefore my people will know my name; therefore in that day they will know that it is I who foretold⁴ it. Yes, it is I."
7How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation⁵, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns⁶!"
8Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices; together they shout for joy. When the Lord returns to Zion, they will see it with their own eyes.
9Burst into songs of joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for the Lord has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10The Lord will lay bare his holy arm in the sight of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
11Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Come out from it and be pure, you who carry the vessels⁷ of the Lord .
12But you will not leave in haste or go in flight; for the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13See, my servant will act wisely ; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted⁸.
14Just as there were many who were appalled⁹ at him - his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred¹⁰ beyond human likeness-
15so will he sprinkle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him. For what they were not told, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.
