Isaiah 12
New King James Version
A Hymn of Praise
12 And (A)in that day you will say:
“O Lord, I will praise You;
Though You were angry with me,
Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
2 Behold, God is my salvation,
I will trust and not be afraid;
(B)‘For (C)Yah, the Lord, is my strength and song;
He also has become my salvation.’ ”
3 Therefore with joy you will draw (D)water
From the wells of salvation.
4 And in that day you will say:
(E)“Praise the Lord, call upon His name;
(F)Declare His deeds among the peoples,
Make mention that His (G)name is exalted.
5 (H)Sing to the Lord,
For He has done excellent things;
This is known in all the earth.
6 (I)Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion,
For great is (J)the Holy One of Israel in your midst!”
