BE STRONG, GO, PUBLISHED PEACE, AND PROCLAIMED GOOD TIDINGS OF GOOD! Isaiah 52:v1Jerusalem, be strong and great again! Holy city of God, clothe yourself with splendor! The heathen will never enter your gates again. v2Shake yourself free, Jerusalem! Rise from the dust and sit on your throne! Undo the chains that bind you, captive people of Zion! v3The Sovereign Lord says to his people, When you became slaves, no money was paid for you; in the same way nothing will be paid to set you free. v4When you went to live in Egypt as foreigners, you did so of your own free will; Assyria, however, took you away by force and paid nothing for you. v5And now in Babylonia the same thing has happened: you are captives, and nothing was paid for you. Those who rule over you boast and brag and constantly show contempt for me. v6In time to come you will acknowledge that I am God and that I have spoken to you. v7How wonderful it is to see a messenger coming across the mountains, bringing good news, the news of peace! He announces victory and says to Zion, Your God is king!
