Proclaim freedom to the captive

release for prisoners

And the vengeance of God

Mourn no more in ashes

Bestowed a crown of beauty

And anointed with gladness

Take up your joyful singing

The arm of the Lord is mighty

His vengeance is terrible

Restore the devastated

Renew the ancient ruins

You will be as oaks planted by the Lord

You will be the priests of God

Established by your Lord

You will feed on the wealth of nations

And YahWeh will be your God

For the Lord delights in you

So he will do these things

You will be the priests of God

Established by your Lord

You will feed on the wealth of nations

And YahWeh will be your God

You will be exalted high

By the strength of the Lord

Instead of shame

A double portion

Instead of disgrace

Inheritance

Instead of dust

Everlasting joy

Instead of emptiness

Exaltation

(Isaiah 61)
