³ Behold, you have instructed many,
    and you have ^(A)strengthened the weak hands.
⁴ Your words have upheld him who was stumbling,
    and you have ^(B)made firm the feeble knees.

¹⁴ And it shall be said,
^(A)“Build up, build up, prepare the way,
    remove every obstruction from my people's way.”
¹⁵ For thus says ^(B)the One who is high and lifted up,
    who inhabits eternity, whose name is ^(C)Holy:
^(D)“I dwell in the high and holy place,
    and also ^(E)with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
^(F)to revive the spirit of the lowly,
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.
^16 (G)For I will not contend forever,
    nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
    and the breath of life that I made.

⁵ I could strengthen you with my mouth,
    and the solace of my lips would assuage your pain.

52 ^(A)Awake, awake,
    put on your strength, O Zion;
^(B)put on your beautiful garments,
    O Jerusalem, ^(C)the holy city;
^(D)for there shall no more come into you
    the uncircumcised and the unclean.
^2 (E)Shake yourself from the dust and arise;
    be seated, O Jerusalem;
^(F)loose the bonds from your neck,
    O captive daughter of Zion.
