Isaiah 52:2-7 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

2. Shake thyself from dust, arise, sit, O Jerusalem, Bands of thy neck have loosed themselves, O captive, daughter of Zion.

3. For thus said Jehovah: `For nought ye have been sold, And not by money are ye redeemed.'

4. For thus said the Lord Jehovah: `To Egypt My people went down at first to sojourn there, And Asshur--for nought he hath oppressed it.

5. And now, what--to Me here, An affirmation of Jehovah, That taken is My people for nought? Its rulers cause howling, --an affirmation of Jehovah, And continually all the day My name is despised.

6. Therefore doth My people know My name, Therefore, in that day, Surely I [am] He who is speaking, behold Me.'

7. How comely on the mountains, Have been the feet of one proclaiming tidings, Sounding peace, proclaiming good tidings, Sounding salvation, Saying to Zion, `Reigned hath thy God.'
