“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.
Therefore they shall know in that day
That I am He who speaks:
‘Behold, it is I.’ ”
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!”
With their voices they shall sing together;
For they shall see eye to eye
When the Lord brings back Zion.
You waste places of Jerusalem!
For the Lord has comforted His people,
He has redeemed Jerusalem.
In the eyes of ball the nations;
And all the ends of the earth shall see
The salvation of our God.
Touch no unclean thing;
Go out from the midst of her,
bBe clean,
You who bear the vessels of the Lord.
Nor go by flight;
bFor the Lord will go before you,
cAnd the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
