Isaiah 52

Ma Navu: The Song of Salvation
1Awake, awake! Clothe yourself in your strength, Zion! Clothe yourself in beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for the uncircumcised and the unclean will never invade you again.
2Shake off the dust and arise! Be enthroned, Jerusalem. Loose the bonds off your neck, captive Daughter of Zion.
3For thus says Adonai: “You were sold for nothing. So you will be redeemed without silver.”
4For thus says Adonai Elohim: “At first My people went down to Egypt to reside there, then the Assyrian oppressed them for nothing.
5“Now therefore, what do I have here?” —it is a declaration of Adonai— “My people are taken away for nothing? Its rulers wail” —it is Adonai’s declaration— “and My Name is continually blasphemed all day long.
6Therefore My people will know My Name. Therefore in that day, I am the One who will be saying, ‘Hineni!’”
7How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who announces shalom, who brings good news of happiness, who announces salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8The voice of your watchmen— they will lift up their voices. Together they are shouting for joy! For they will see eye to eye when Adonai returns to Zion.
9Break forth in joy, sing together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for Adonai has comforted His people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10Adonai has bared His holy arm before the eyes of all the nations. All the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
11Leave, leave! Get out of there! Touch no unclean thing. Go out of her midst. Purify yourselves, you who carry the vessels of Adonai.
12For you will not go out in haste, nor will you go in flight, for Adonai will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
Fourth Servant Song: The Lamb
13“Behold, My servant will prosper, He will be high and lifted up and greatly exalted.
14Just as many were appalled at You— His appearance was disfigured more than any man, His form more than the sons of men.
15So He will sprinkle many nations. Kings will shut their mouths because of Him, for what had not been told them they will see, and what they had not heard they will perceive.

The Lord’s Coming Salvation
1 # ch. 51:17 Awake, awake,
put on your strength, O Zion;
# [Ex. 28:2, 40]; See Zech. 3:1-4 put on your beautiful garments,
O Jerusalem, #ch. 48:2; Neh. 11:1 the holy city;
# ch. 60:21; Joel 3:17; [ch. 35:8; Rev. 21:27] for there shall no more come into you
the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 # [ch. 51:23] Shake yourself from the dust and arise;
be seated, O Jerusalem;
# ch. 51:14 loose the bonds from your neck,
O captive daughter of Zion.
3For thus says the Lord: #ch. 45:13; 50:1 “You were sold for nothing, and #[1 Pet. 1:18]you shall be redeemed without money.” 4For thus says the Lord God: #Gen. 46:6“My people went down at the first into Egypt to sojourn there, and the Assyrian oppressed them for nothing.#52:4 Or the Assyrian has oppressed them of late 5Now therefore what have I here,” declares the Lord, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Their rulers wail,” declares the Lord, “and #Cited Rom. 2:24; [Ezek. 36:20, 23]continually all the day my name is despised. 6Therefore my people shall know my name. #[ch. 49:26]Therefore in that day they shall know that it is I who speak; here I am.”
7 #
Nah. 1:15; Cited Rom. 10:15 How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him who brings good news,
who publishes peace, #ch. 40:9who brings good news of happiness,
who publishes salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.”
8The voice of #See ch. 62:6 your watchmen—they lift up their voice;
together they sing for joy;
# [ch. 33:17, 22; 1 Cor. 13:12; 1 John 3:2; Rev. 22:4] for eye to eye they see
the return of the Lord to Zion.
9 #
Ps. 98:4 Break forth together into singing,
# ch. 58:12 you waste places of Jerusalem,
for #ch. 40:1; 51:3, 12the Lord has comforted his people;
he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 # See ch. 51:9 The Lord has bared his holy arm
before the eyes of all the nations,
#
Ps. 98:3; [Luke 3:6] and all the ends of the earth shall see
the salvation of our God.
11 # ch. 48:20; Jer. 50:8; 51:6, 45; Zech. 2:6, 7; Cited 2 Cor. 6:17; [Rev. 18:4] Depart, depart, go out from there;
touch no unclean thing;
go out from the midst of her; purify yourselves,
# See Ezra 1:7-11 you who bear the vessels of the Lord.
12For you shall not #[Ex. 12:11, 33, 39] go out in haste,
and you shall not go in flight,
#
Mic. 2:13; [Ex. 14:19] for the Lord will go before you,
# [ch. 58:8] and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
He Was Pierced for Our Transgressions
13Behold, #See ch. 42:1my servant shall act wisely;#52:13 Or shall prosper
he shall be high and lifted up,
and shall be exalted.
14As many were astonished at you—
# [ch. 53:2, 3] his appearance was so marred, beyond human semblance,
and his form beyond that of the children of mankind—
15so #Lev. 4:6, 17 shall he sprinkle#52:15 Or startle many nations.
# ch. 49:7, 23 Kings shall shut their mouths because of him,
# Cited Rom. 15:21; [Rom. 16:25] for that which has not been told them they see,
and that which they have not heard they understand.
