How lovely on the mountains
Are the feet of him who proclaims (A)good news,
Who [a]announces [b]peace
And proclaims good news of good things,
Who [c]announces salvation,
And says to Zion, “Your (B)God [d]reigns!”
The voice of Your watchmen! They lift up their (C)voices;
They shout joyfully together;
For they will see [e]with their own eyes
When Yahweh returns to Zion.
(D)Break forth, shout joyfully together,
You (E)waste places of Jerusalem;
For Yahweh has comforted His people;
He has (F)redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Yahweh has bared His holy (G)arm
In the sight of all the nations,
[f]That (H)all the ends of the earth may see
The salvation of our God.
