Isaiah 52:6
Therefore my people shall know my name - The idea in this verse is, that his people should have such exhibitions of his power as to furnish to them demonstration that he was God.
4 For thus says the Lord God:
“My people went down at first
Into aEgypt to dwell there;
Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
“My people went down at first
Into aEgypt to dwell there;
Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 Now therefore, what have I here,” says the Lord,
“That My people are taken away for nothing?
Those who rule over them
1Make them wail,” says the Lord,
“And My name is ablasphemed continually every day.
“That My people are taken away for nothing?
Those who rule over them
1Make them wail,” says the Lord,
“And My name is ablasphemed continually every day.
6 Therefore My people shall know My name;
Therefore they shall know in that day
That I am He who speaks:
‘Behold, it is I.’ ”
Therefore they shall know in that day
That I am He who speaks:
‘Behold, it is I.’ ”
7 aHow beautiful upon the mountains
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
b“Your God reigns!”
Are the feet of him who brings good news,
Who proclaims peace,
Who brings glad tidings of good things,
Who proclaims salvation,
Who says to Zion,
b“Your God reigns!”
8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voices,
With their voices they shall sing together;
For they shall see eye to eye
When the Lord brings back Zion.
With their voices they shall sing together;
For they shall see eye to eye
When the Lord brings back Zion.
