it “Utensils” ¶2
Isaiah 52:
1 For no more will the uncircumcised and unclean one enter into you.
2 Loosen the bonds on your neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
3 And without money you will be repurchased.”
4 Then As·syrʹi·a oppressed them without cause.”
5 “And constantly, all day long, my name is treated with disrespect.
6 Look, it is I!”
7 The one saying to Zion: “Your God has become King!”
8 For they will see it clearly when Jehovah gathers back Zion.
9 For Jehovah has comforted his people; he has repurchased Jerusalem.
10 All the ends of the earth will see the acts of salvation of our God.
11 You who are carrying the utensils of Jehovah.
12 And the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13 He will be elevated and greatly exalted.
14 And his stately form more than that of mankind—
15 And give consideration to what they had not heard.
Isaiah 53:
1 And as for the arm of Jehovah, to whom has it been revealed?
2 And when we see him, his appearance does not draw us to him.
3 He was despised, and we held him as of no account.
4 But we considered him as plagued, stricken by God and afflicted.
5 And because of his wounds we were healed.
6 And Jehovah has caused the error of us all to meet up with him.
7 And he would not open his mouth.
8 Because of the transgression of my people he received the stroke.
9 And there was no deception in his mouth.
10 And through him the delight of Jehovah will have success.
11 And their errors he will bear.
12 And he interceded for the transgressors.
