Isaiah 12
New Life Version
A Song of Thanks
12 You will say on that day, “I will give thanks to You, O Lord. Even though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away and You comfort me. 2 See, God saves me. I will trust and not be afraid. For the Lord God is my strength and song. And He has become the One Who saves me.” 3 As water from a well brings joy to the thirsty, so people have joy when He saves them. 4 In that day you will say, “Give thanks to the Lord. Call on His name. Make known His works among the people. Help them remember that His name is honored.” 5 Sing praises to the Lord, for He has done great things. Let this be known in all the earth. 6 Call out and sing for joy, O people of Zion. For the Holy One of Israel is great among you.
