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.

The Herald of the Gospel

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of a herald,
    who proclaims peace and preaches good news,
    who proclaims salvation,
    who says to Zion, “Your God is king!”
The voice of your watchmen—they lift up their voices.
Together they shout for joy,
because with both eyes they will see it
when the Lord returns to Zion.
Break out, shout for joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem,
because the Lord is comforting his people.
    He is redeeming Jerusalem.
10 The Lord lays bare[a] his holy arm before the eyes of all the nations,
and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation from our God.
