Isaiah 12

Chapter 12

Songs of Praise for Salvation

1 In that day you will sing:
“I will praise you, O LORD!
You were angry with me, but not any more.
Now you comfort me.
2 See, 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.”
3 With joy you will drink deeply
from the fountain of salvation!
4 In 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!
5 Sing to the LORD, for he has done wonderful things.
Make known his praise around the world.
6 Let all the people of Jerusalemt shout his praise with joy!
For great is the Holy One of Israel who lives among you.”

ISAIAH 12

A Song of Praise

1 At that time you will say,
“I thank you, [Lord]!
You were angry with me,
but you stopped being angry
and gave me comfort.

2  t I trust you to save me,
[Lord] God,
and I won't be afraid.
My power and my strengtht
come from you,
and you have saved me.”

3 With great joy, you people
will get water
from the well of victory.

4 At that time you will say,
“Our [Lord], we are thankful,
and we worship only you.
We will tell the nations
how glorious you are
and what you have done.

5 Because of your wonderful deeds
we will sing your praises
everywhere on earth.”

6 Sing, people of Zion!
Celebrate the greatness
of the holy [Lord] of Israel.
God is here to help you.
