Isaiah 52:7-10

The Lord's Coming Salvation

7 n How beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him who brings good news,
who publishes peace, o who brings good news of happiness,
who publishes salvation,
who says to Zion, "Your God reigns."
8 The voice of p your watchmen - they lift up their voice;
together they sing for joy;
q for eye to eye they see
the return of the Lord to Zion.
9 r Break forth together into singing,
s you waste places of Jerusalem,
for t the Lord has comforted his people;
he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 u The Lord has bared his holy arm
before the eyes of all the nations,
v and all the ends of the earth shall see
the salvation of our God.
