Isaiah 52:3-15

Isaiah 52:3-15

[3] For thus saith  the LORD,  Ye have sold  yourselves for nought;  and ye shall be redeemed  without money.  [4] For thus saith  the Lord  GOD,  My people  went down  aforetime  into Egypt  to sojourn  there; and the Assyrian  oppressed  them without cause.  [5] Now therefore, what have I here, saith  the LORD,  that my people  is taken away  for nought?  they that rule  over them make them to howl,  saith  the LORD;  and my name  continually  every day  is blasphemed.  [6] Therefore my people  shall know  my name:  therefore they shall know in that day  that I am he that doth speak:  [7] How beautiful  upon the mountains  are the feet  of him that bringeth good tidings,  that publisheth  peace;  that bringeth good tidings  of good,  that publisheth  salvation;  that saith  unto Zion,  Thy God  reigneth!  [8] Thy watchmen  shall lift up  the voice;  together  shall they sing:  for they shall see  eye  when the LORD  shall bring again  Zion.  [9] Break forth into joy,  sing  together,  ye waste places  of Jerusalem:  for the LORD  hath comforted  his people,  he hath redeemed  Jerusalem.  [10] The LORD  hath made bare  his holy  arm  in the eyes  of all the nations;  and all the ends  of the earth  shall see  the salvation  of our God.  [11] Depart  ye, go ye out  from thence, touch  no unclean  thing; go ye out  of the midst  of her; be ye clean,  that bear  the vessels  of the LORD.  [12] For ye shall not go out  with haste,  by flight:  will go  before  you; and the God  of Israel  will be your rereward.  [13] Behold, my servant  shall deal prudently,  he shall be exalted  and extolled,  and be very  high.  [14] As many  were astonied  at thee; his visage  was so marred  more than any man,  and his form  more than the sons  of men:  [15] So shall he sprinkle  many  nations;  the kings  shall shut  their mouths  at him: for that which had not been told  them shall they see;  and that which they had not heard  shall they consider.
