Isaiah 51:9-11

New International Version

⁹Awake, awake,^(A) arm^(B) of the Lord,
    clothe yourself with strength!^(C)
Awake, as in days gone by,
    as in generations of old.^(D)
Was it not you who cut Rahab^(E) to pieces,
    who pierced that monster^(F) through?
¹⁰Was it not you who dried up the sea,^(G)
    the waters of the great deep,^(H)
who made a road in the depths of the sea^(I)
    so that the redeemed^(J) might cross over?
¹¹Those the Lord has rescued^(K) will return.
    They will enter Zion with singing;^(L)
    everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy^(M) will overtake them,
    and sorrow and sighing will flee away.^(N)

⁹^(A)Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the Lord;
Awake as in the ^(B)days of old, the generations of long ago.
^(C)Was it not You who cut ^[a]Rahab in pieces,
Who pierced the ^(D)dragon?
¹⁰Was it not You who ^(E)dried up the sea,
The waters of the great deep;
Who made the depths of the sea a pathway
For the ^(F)redeemed to cross over?

And come to Zion with joyful shouting,
And ^(H)everlasting joy will be on their heads.
They will obtain gladness and joy,
And ^(I)sorrow and sighing will flee away.
