Isaiah 12

12
Song of Praise for the Redeemed
1In that day you will sing, # 12:1 Isaiah contains nine songs: the Song of Zion (Isa. 1–4), the Song of the Lover and His Vineyard (Isa. 5), the Song of Praise for the Redeemed (Isa. 12), the Song of the Strong City (Isa. 26:1–4), the Joyful Song of the Redeemed (Isa. 35), the New Song to the Lord (Isa. 42:10–12), the Song of Joy in Creation (Isa. 44:23), the Song of Salvation (Isa. 52:7–12), and the Song of the Suffering Servant (Isa. 52:13–53:12).
“I praise you, Lord Yahweh,
for even though you were angry with me,
your anger turned away,
and now you tenderly comfort me. # 12:1 Or, as a jussive (expression of desire), “May your anger be turned away and may you comfort me” (Masoretic Text).
2Behold—God is my salvation! # 12:2 Or “the God who gives me triumph.” The Hebrew word for “salvation,” yĕshuw’ah, is found in Isaiah twenty-eight times and is very similar to the Hebrew name of Jesus: Yeshua. Redemption is God’s last word, not judgment. To know Jesus is to know the God of salvation.
I am confident, unafraid, and I will trust in you.”
Yes! The Lord Yah is my might and my melody;
he has become my salvation! # 12:2 See Ex. 15:2; Ps. 118:14.
3With triumphant joy you will drink deeply
from the wells # 12:3 Or “fountains,” “springs,” or “streams” (LXX). The streams of salvation represent Jesus’ life in us. See Isa. 41:17–18; Jer. 2:13; 17:13; John 4:13–14; 7:37–39; Rev. 7:17. Through Christ, God’s sons and daughters are living wells of salvation, containers bringing the water of life to others. of salvation. # 12:3 Or “the savior” (yĕshuw’ah).
4In that glorious day, you will say to one another,
“Give thanks to the Lord and ask him for more! # 12:4 Or “call upon his name”; that is, invoke his name for help.
Tell the world about all that he does!
Let them know how magnificent he is!” # 12:4 Or “Proclaim that his name is exalted.”
5Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done marvelous wonders,
and let his fame be known throughout the earth!
6Give out a shout of cheer;
sing for joy, # 12:6 See Pss. 47:1; 148–150. O people of Zion,
for great and mighty is the Holy One of Israel
who lives among you!
