Lyrics
1 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.
2 Shake thyself from the dust;
arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem:
loose thyself from the bands of
thy neck, O captive daughter of
Zion.
3 For thus saith the LORD, Ye have
sold yourselves for nought; and ye
shall be redeemed without money.
4 For thus saith the Lord GOD, My
people went down aforetime into
Egypt to sojourn there; and the
Assyrian oppressed them without
cause.
5 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.
6 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.
7 How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him that bringeth
good tidings, that publisheth
peace; that bringeth good tidings
of good, that publisheth
salvation; that saith unto Zion,
Thy God reigneth!
8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the
voice; with the voice together
shall they sing: for they shall
see eye to eye, when the LORD
shall bring again Zion.
9 Break forth into joy, sing
together, ye waste places of
Jerusalem: for the LORD hath
comforted his people, he hath
redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The LORD hath made bare 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 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out
from thence, touch no unclean
thing; go ye out of the midst of
her; be ye clean, that bear the
vessels of the LORD.
12 For ye shall not go out with
haste, nor go by flight: for the
LORD will go before you; and the
God of Israel will be your
rereward.
13 Behold, my servant shall deal
prudently, he shall be exalted and
extolled, and be very high.
14 As many were astonied at thee;
his visage was so marred more than
any man, and his form more than
the sons of men:
15 So shall he sprinkle many
nations; the kings shall shut
their mouths at him: for that
which had not been told them shall
they see; and that which they had
not heard shall they consider.
