How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of the herald,
who proclaims peace,
who brings news of good things,(A)
who proclaims salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”(B)
The voices of your watchmen(C)
they lift up their voices,
shouting for joy together;
for every eye will see
when the Lord returns to Zion.
Be joyful, rejoice together,
you ruins of Jerusalem!(D)
For the Lord has comforted His people;(E)
He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord has displayed His holy arm
in the sight of all the nations;(F)
all the ends of the earth will see
the salvation of our God.(G)

“How beautiful[a] on the mountains
    are the feet of the one who brings news of peace,[b]
who announces good things,
    who announces salvation,[c]
        who says to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!’
Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices,[d]
    together they sing for joy;
for they will see in plain sight
    the return of the Lord to Zion with compassion.[e]

“Break forth together into singing,[f]
    you ruins of Jerusalem;
for the Lord has comforted his people,
    and[g] he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The Lord has bared his holy arm[h]
    in the eyes of all the nations;
and all the ends of the earth will see
    the salvation of our God.
