Isaiah 12:1-6

The Song of Salvation and the Praise of the Holy One in Zion

The chapter moves from thanksgiving for anger turned away, to confidence in the LORD as salvation, to joyful drawing from salvation’s wells, to public proclamation among the nations, and finally to Zion’s shout of joy because the Holy One of Israel is great in her midst.

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

1 In that day you will say: “O LORD, I will praise You. Although You were angry with me, Your anger has turned away, and You have comforted me.

2 Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and He also has become my salvation.”

3 With joy you will draw water from the springs of salvation,

4 and on that day you will say: “Give praise to the LORD; proclaim His name! Make His works known among the peoples; declare that His name is exalted.

5 Sing to the LORD, for He has done glorious things. Let this be known in all the earth.

6 Cry out and sing, O citizen of Zion, for great among you is the Holy One of Israel.”
