Isaiah 51:1 - 51:3

“Listen to Me, you who pursue righteousness,

Who seek Yahweh:

Look to the rock from which you were hewn

And to the quarry from which you were dug.

Look to Abraham your father

And to Sarah who brought you forth through labor pains;

When he was but one I called him,

Then I blessed him and multiplied him.”

Indeed, Yahweh will comfort Zion;

He will comfort all her waste places.

And her wilderness He will make like Eden,

And her desert like the garden of Yahweh;

Joy and gladness will be found in her,

Thanksgiving and sound of a melody.
