- "Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek Yahweh: look to the rock you were cut from, and to the hold of the pit you were dug from.
- Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him, and made him many.
- For Yahweh has comforted Zion; he has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of Yahweh; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
- "Attend to me, my people; and give ear to me, my nation: for a law shall go forth from me, and I will establish my justice for a light of the peoples.
- My righteousness is near, my salvation is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the peoples; the islands shall wait for me, and on my arm shall they trust.
- Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look on the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment; and those who dwell therein shall die in the same way: but my salvation shall be forever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
- "Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; don't fear the reproach of men, neither be dismayed at their insults.
- For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool; but my righteousness shall be forever, and my salvation to all generations."
- Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of Yahweh; awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn't it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?
- Isn't it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
- The ransomed of Yahweh shall return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy shall be on their heads: they shall obtain gladness and joy; [and] sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
- "I, even I, am he who comforts you: who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who shall be made as grass;
- and have forgotten Yahweh your Maker, who stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and fear continually all the day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he makes ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
- The captive exile shall speedily be freed; and he shall not die [and go down] into the pit, neither shall his bread fail.
- For I am Yahweh your God, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar: Yahweh of Armies is his name.
- I have put my words in your mouth, and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, 'You are my people.'"
- Awake, awake, stand up, Jerusalem, that have drunk at the hand of Yahweh the cup of his wrath; you have drunken the bowl of the cup of staggering, and drained it.
- There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she has brought forth; neither is there any who takes her by the hand among all the sons who she has brought up.
- These two things have happened to you. Who will bemoan you? Desolation and destruction, and the famine and the sword; how shall I comfort you?
- Your sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as an antelope in a net; they are full of the wrath of Yahweh, the rebuke of your God.
- Therefore hear now this, you afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
- Thus says your Lord Yahweh, and your God who pleads the cause of his people, "Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath; you shall no more drink it again:
- and I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who have said to your soul, 'Bow down, that we may walk over you;' and you have laid your back as the ground, and as the street, to those who walk over."

- שמעו אלי רדפי צדק מבקשי יהוה הביטו אל־צור חצבתם ואל־מקבת בור נקרתם׃
- הביטו אל־אברהם אביכם ואל־שרה תחוללכם כי־אחד קראתיו ואברכהו וארבהו׃ ס
- כי־נחם יהוה ציון נחם כל־חרבתיה וישם מדברה כעדן וערבתה כגן־יהוה ששון ושמחה ימצא בה תודה וקול זמרה׃ ס
- הקשיבו אלי עמי ולאומי אלי האזינו כי תורה מאתי תצא ומשפטי לאור עמים ארגיע׃
- קרוב צדקי יצא ישעי וזרעי עמים ישפטו אלי איים יקוו ואל־זרעי ייחלון׃
- שאו לשמים עיניכם והביטו אל־הארץ מתחת כי־שמים כעשן נמלחו והארץ כבגד תבלה וישביה כמו־כן ימותון וישועתי לעולם תהיה וצדקתי לא תחת׃ ס
- שמעו אלי ידעי צדק עם תורתי בלבם אל־תיראו חרפת אנוש ומגדפתם אל־תחתו׃
- כי כבגד יאכלם עש וכצמר יאכלם סס וצדקתי לעולם תהיה וישועתי לדור דורים׃ ס
- עורי עורי לבשי־עז זרוע יהוה עורי כימי קדם דרות עולמים הלוא את־היא המחצבת רהב מחוללת תנין׃
- הלוא את־היא המחרבת ים מי תהום רבה השמה מעמקי־ים דרך לעבר גאולים׃
- ופדויי יהוה ישובון ובאו ציון ברנה ושמחת עולם על־ראשם ששון ושמחה ישיגון נסו יגון ואנחה׃ ס
- אנכי אנכי הוא מנחםכם מי־את ותיראי מאנוש ימות ומבן־אדם חציר ינתן׃
- ותשכח יהוה עשך נוטה שמים ויסד ארץ ותפחד תמיד כל־היום מפני חמת המציק כאשר כוןן להשחית ואיה חמת המציק׃
- מהר צעה להפתח ולא־ימות לשחת ולא יחסר לחמו׃
- ואנכי יהוה אלהיך רגע הים ויהמו גליו יהוה צבאות שמו׃
- ואשים דברי בפיך ובצל ידי כסיתיך לנטע שמים וליסד ארץ ולאמר לציון עמי־אתה׃ ס
- התעוררי התעוררי קומי ירושלם אשר שתית מיד יהוה את־כוס חמתו את־קבעת כוס התרעלה שתית מצית׃
- אין־מנהל לה מכל־בנים ילדה ואין מחזיק בידה מכל־בנים גדלה׃
- שתים הנה קראתיך מי ינוד לך השד והשבר והרעב והחרב מי אנחמך׃
- בניך עלפו שכבו בראש כל־חוצות כתוא מכמר המלאים חמת־יהוה גערת אלהיך׃
- לכן שמעי־נא זאת עניה ושכרת ולא מיין׃ ס
- כה־אמר אדניך יהוה ואלהיך יריב עמו הנה לקחתי מידך את־כוס התרעלה את־קבעת כוס חמתי לא־תוסיפי לשתותה עוד׃
- ושמתיה ביד־מוגיך אשר־אמרו לנפשך שחי ונעברה ותשימי כארץ גוך וכחוץ לעברים׃ ס

- Audite me, qui sequimini quod justum est, et quæritis Dominum ; attendite ad petram unde excisi estis, et ad cavernam laci de qua præcisi estis.
- Attendite ad Abraham, patrem vestrum, et ad Saram, quæ peperit vos ; quia unum vocavi eum, et benedixi ei, et multiplicavi eum.
- Consolabitur ergo Dominus Sion, et consolabitur omnes ruinas ejus ; et ponet desertum ejus quasi delicias, et solitudinem ejus quasi hortum Domini. Gaudium et lætitia invenietur in ea, gratiarum actio et vox laudis.
- Attendite ad me, popule meus, et, tribus mea, me audite : quia lex a me exiet, et judicium meum in lucem populorum requiescet.
- Prope est justus meus, egressus est salvator meus, et brachia mea populos judicabunt ; me insulæ exspectabunt, et brachium meum sustinebunt.
- Levate in cælum oculos vestros, et videte sub terra deorsum ; quia cæli sicut fumus liquescent, et terra sicut vestimentum atteretur, et habitatores ejus sicut hæc interibunt, salus autem mea in sempiternum erit, et justitia mea non deficiet.
- Audite me, qui scitis justum : populus meus, lex mea in corde eorum ; nolite timere opprobrium hominum, et blasphemias eorum ne metuatis ;
- sicut enim vestimentum, sic comedet eos vermis ; et sicut lanam, sic devorabit eos tinea : salus autem mea in sempiternum erit ; et justitia mea in generationes generationum.
- Consurge, consurge, induere fortitudinem, brachium Domini ! Consurge sicut in diebus antiquis, in generationibus sæculorum. Numquid non tu percussisti superbum, vulnerasti draconem ?
- Numquid non tu siccasti mare, aquam abyssi vehementis ; qui posuisti profundum maris viam, ut transirent liberati ?
- Et nunc qui redempti sunt a Domino, revertentur ; et venient in Sion laudantes, et lætitia sempiterna super capita eorum, gaudium et lætitiam tenebunt ; fugiet dolor et gemitus.
- Ego, ego ipse consolabor vos. Quis tu, ut timeres ab homine mortali, et a filio hominis qui quasi fœnum ita arescet ?
- Et oblitus es Domini, factoris tui, qui tetendit cælos et fundavit terram ; et formidasti jugiter tota die a facie furoris ejus qui te tribulabat, et paraverat ad perdendum. Ubi nunc est furor tribulantis ?
- Cito veniet gradiens ad aperiendum ; et non interficiet usque ad internecionem nec deficiet panis ejus.
- Ego autem sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui conturbo mare, et intumescunt fluctus ejus ; Dominus exercituum nomen meum.
- Posui verba mea in ore tuo, et in umbra manus meæ protexi te, ut plantes cælos, et fundes terram, et dicas ad Sion : Populus meus es tu.
- Elevare, elevare, consurge, Jerusalem, quæ bibisti de manu Domini calicem iræ ejus ; usque ad fundum calicis soporis bibisti, et potasti usque ad fæces.
- Non est qui sustentet eam, ex omnibus filiis quos genuit ; et non est qui apprehendat manum ejus, ex omnibus filiis quos enutrivit.
- Duo sunt quæ occurrerunt tibi ; quis contristabitur super te ? Vastitas, et contritio, et fames, et gladius ; quis consolabitur te ?
- Filii tui projecti sunt, dormierunt in capite omnium viarum sicut oryx illaqueatus ; pleni indignatione Domini, increpatione Dei tui.
- Idcirco audi hoc, paupercula, et ebria non a vino.
- Hæc dicit dominator tuus Dominus et Deus tuus, qui pugnabit pro populo suo : Ecce tuli de manu tua calicem soporis, fundum calicis indignationis meæ ; non adjicies ut bibas illum ultra.
- Et ponam illum in manu eorum qui te humiliaverunt, et dixerunt animæ tuæ : Incurvare, ut transeamus ; et posuisti ut terram corpus tuum, et quasi viam transeuntibus.

- Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged.
- Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.
- For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
- Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people.
- My righteousness is near; my salvation is gone forth, and mine arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon me, and on mine arm shall they trust.
- Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
- Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
- For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
- Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. Art thou not it that hath cut Rahab, and wounded the dragon?
- Art thou not it which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deep; that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to pass over?
- Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
- I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass;
- And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
- The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed, and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.
- But I am the LORD thy God, that divided the sea, whose waves roared: The LORD of hosts is his name.
- And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.
- Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of the LORD the cup of his fury; thou hast drunken the dregs of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out.
- There is none to guide her among all the sons whom she hath brought forth; neither is there any that taketh her by the hand of all the sons that she hath brought up.
- These two things are come unto thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?
- Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.
- Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
- Thus saith thy Lord the LORD, and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thine hand the cup of trembling, even the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:
- But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; which have said to thy soul, Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.
