The Book of the Prophet Isaiah

 1 ^aAwake, awake; put on thy ^bstrength, O ^cZion; put on thy ^dbeautiful ^egarments, O ^fJerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.

 2 ^aShake thyself from the dust; ^barise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the ^cbands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

 3 For thus saith the Lord, Ye have ^asold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed without ^bmoney.

 4 For thus saith the Lord ^aGod, My people went down aforetime into ^bEgypt 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 ^ablasphemed.

 6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that ^aday that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.

 7 ¶How ^abeautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that ^bbringeth ^cgood ^dtidings, that ^epublisheth ^fpeace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto ^gZion, Thy God reigneth!

 8 Thy ^awatchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall ^bsee eye to eye, when the Lord ^cshall bring again ^dZion.

 9 ¶Break forth into joy, sing together, ye ^awaste places of Jerusalem: for the Lord hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.

 10 The Lord hath made ^abare his holy ^barm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall ^csee the ^dsalvation of our God.

 11 ¶Depart ye, depart ye, go ye ^aout from thence, ^btouch no ^cunclean thing; go ye ^dout of the midst of her; be ye ^eclean, that bear the vessels of the Lord.

 12 For ye shall not go out with ^ahaste, nor go by flight: for the Lord will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your ^brearward.

 13 ¶Behold, my ^aservant shall deal ^bprudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.

 14 As many were ^aastonied at thee; his ^bvisage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:

 15 So shall he ^asprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been ^btold them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they consider.
