Isaiah 12
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 12
Thanksgiving for Salvation
1 On that day you will say:
I will give you thanks, O Lord.
Even though you were angry with me,
your anger has abated
and you have consoled me.
2 God truly is my salvation;
I will trust in him and be unafraid.
For the Lord is my strength and my source of courage;
he has been my salvation.
3 With joy you will draw water
from the fountain of salvation,
4 and you will say on that day:
Give thanks to the Lord,
invoke his name;
make known his deeds among the nations;
proclaim that his name is exalted.
5 Sing praise to the Lord for his mighty deeds;
let this be known throughout the entire world.
6 Cry out and shout for joy,
all of you who dwell on Zion,
for great in your midst
is the Holy One of Israel.

(B)‘For (C)Yah, the Lord, is my strength and song;
