Isaiah 12
Living Bible
12 On that day you will say, “Praise the Lord! He was angry with me, but now he comforts me. 2 See, God has come to save me! I will trust and not be afraid, for the Lord is my strength and song; he is my salvation. 3 Oh, the joy of drinking deeply from the Fountain of Salvation!”
4 In that wonderful day you will say, “Thank the Lord! Praise his name! Tell the world about his wondrous love.[a] How mighty he is!” 5 Sing to the Lord, for he has done wonderful things. Make known his praise around the world. 6 Let all the people of Jerusalem shout his praise with joy. For great and mighty is the Holy One of Israel, who lives among you.
