Behold! there shall be a day,
when the watchman upon the mountain top shall cry a;loud:
"Arise ye! Get ye up unto Mount Zion,
Unto the Lord your God!"
For thus saith the Lord:
Fear not now, O Israel,
neither be thou dismayed.
Refrain thine voice from weeping
and thine eyes from tears;
for I, the Lord am with thee,
and will save thee.
I have loved thee with everlasting love,
and have redeemed thee.
Why cryest thou in thine affliction?
Why mournest thou in nightly watches?
I have redeemed thee.
Therefore thus saith the Lord:
Sing ye aloud with gladness!
Thy mourning has turned into joy.
I have redeemed thee, be glad and rejoice!
Then fear not now, O Israel,
neither be thou dismayed.
I have redeemed thee,
Then fear not now, O Israel.
