Isaiah 51:11

Compare all

9 ^aAwake, awake, ^bput on strength,
O arm of the Lord!
Awake ^cas in the ancient days,
In the generations of old.
^dAre You not the arm that cut ^eRahab apart,
And wounded the ^fserpent?

10 Are You not the One who ^adried up the sea,
The waters of the great deep;
That made the depths of the sea a road
For the redeemed to cross over?

11 So ^athe ransomed of the Lord shall return,
And come to Zion with singing,
With everlasting joy on their heads.
They shall obtain joy and gladness;
Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

12 “I, even I, am He ^awho comforts you.
Who are you that you should be afraid
^bOf a man who will die,
And of the son of a man who will be made ^clike grass?

13 And ^ayou forget the Lord your Maker,
^bWho stretched out the heavens
And laid the foundations of the earth;
You have feared continually every day
Because of the fury of the oppressor,
When he has prepared to destroy.
^cAnd where is the fury of the oppressor?

<< Isaiah 51:10

Isaiah 51:12 >>

Isaiah 51:11

They shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away - Nineteen MSS. and the two oldest editions have yasigu ; and forty-six MSS. of Kennicott' s and ten of De Rossi' s, and the same two editions, and agreeably to them the Chaldee and Syriac, have venasu ; and so both words are expressed, Isaiah 35:10, of which place this is a repetition. And from comparing both together it appears that the vau in this place is become by mistake in the present text final, nun of the preceding word.
