Isaiah 52
|
|
| 52:1
Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city:
for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the
unclean. |
"Henceforth there shall no more come into
thee [Jerusalem] the uncircumcised and the unclean." But many uncircumcised
people have visited and occupied Jerusalem after this prophecy was made.
(52:1:2) BOM: 2 Nephi 8:24-25
|
| 52:2
Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose
thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
|
| 52:3
For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall
be redeemed without money. |
|
| 52:4
For thus saith the Lord GOD, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to
sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. |
|
| 52:5
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 blasphemed. |
|
| 52:6
Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that
day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I. |
|
| 52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good
tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that
publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! |
BOM: Mosiah 12:21, 15:14
|
| 52:8
Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they
sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion. |
BOM: Mosiah 12:22, 15:29
|
| 52:9
Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the
LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem. |
BOM: Mosiah 12:23, 15:30
|
| 52:10
The LORD hath made
bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of
the earth shall see the salvation of our God. |
God shows off his bare arm.
BOM: Mosiah 12:24, 15:31
|
| 52:11
Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye
out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD. |
|
| 52:12
For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go
before you; and the God of Israel will be your rereward. |
|
| 52:13
Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled,
and be very high. |
|
| 52:14
As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man,
and his form more than the sons of men: |
|
| 52:15
So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at
him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which
they had not heard shall they consider.
