Isaiah 12

Songs of Praise for Salvation

    1In that day you will sing:

       “I will praise you, O LORD!

   You were angry with me, but not any more.

       Now you comfort me.

    2See, God has come to save me.

       I will trust in him and not be afraid.

   The LORD GOD is my strength and my song;

       he has given me victory.”

    3With joy you will drink deeply

       from the fountain of salvation!

    4In that wonderful day you will sing:

       “Thank the LORD! Praise his name!

   Tell the nations what he has done.

       Let them know how mighty he is!

    5Sing to the LORD, for he has done wonderful things.

       Make known his praise around the world.

    6Let all the people of Jerusalem* shout his praise with joy!

       For great is the Holy One of Israel who lives among you.”
