Isaiah 52:4-11 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

4. For thus says the Lord God, "My people went down at the first into Egypt to reside there; then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.

5. Now therefore, what do I have here," declares the Lord, "seeing that My people have been taken away without cause?" Again the Lord declares, "Those who rule over them howl, and My name is continually blasphemed all day long.

6. Therefore My people shall know My name; therefore in that day I am the one who is speaking, 'Here I am.'"

7. How lovely on the mountains Are the feet of him who brings good news, Who announces peace And brings good news of happiness, Who announces salvation, And says to Zion, "Your God reigns!"

8. Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices, They shout joyfully together; For they will see with their own eyes When the Lord restores Zion.

9. Break forth, shout joyfully together, You waste places of Jerusalem; For the Lord has comforted His people, He has redeemed Jerusalem.

10. The Lord has bared His holy arm In the sight of all the nations, That all the ends of the earth may see The salvation of our God.

11. Depart, depart, go out from there, Touch nothing unclean; Go out of the midst of her, purify yourselves, You who carry the vessels of the Lord.
