The Lord has sworn by His right hand
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer (A)give your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.
But those who have gathered it shall eat it,
And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it (B)in My holy courts.”

10 Go through,
Go through the gates!
(C)Prepare the way for the people;
Build up,
Build up the highway!
Take out the stones,
(D)Lift up a banner for the peoples!

11 Indeed the Lord has proclaimed
To the end of the world:
(E)“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Surely your salvation is coming;
Behold, His (F)reward is with Him,
And His [a]work before Him.’ ”
12 And they shall call them The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
And you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
