2 Shake yourself from the dust! Arise, sit up, Jerusalem! Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion!
Shake yourself free from [the] dust arise O captive Jerusalem (loosen for yourself *QK) [the] fetters of neck your O captive [one] [the] daughter of Zion.
3 For the LORD says, “You were sold for nothing; and you will be redeemed without money.”
For thus he says Yahweh for nothing you were sold and not with money you will be redeemed.
4 For the Lord GOD says: “My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there; and the Assyrian has oppressed them without cause.
For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh Egypt it went down people my at the former [time] to sojourn there and Assyria for nothing it oppressed it.
5 “Now therefore, what do I do here,” says the LORD, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock,” says the LORD, “and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
And therefore (what? *QK) ([belongs] to me *Qk) here [the] utterance of Yahweh that it was taken people my for nothing (rulers its *QK) they wail [the] utterance of Yahweh and continually all the day name my [is] reviled.
6 Therefore my people shall know my name. Therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks. Behold, it is I.”
Therefore it will know people my name my therefore in the day that that I [am] he who is speaking here [am] I.
7 How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”

8 Your watchmen lift up their voice. Together they sing; for they shall see eye to eye when the LORD returns to Zion.

10 The LORD has made his holy arm bare in the eyes of all the nations. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
He has bared Yahweh [the] arm of holiness his to [the] eyes of all the nations and they will see all [the] ends of [the] earth [the] salvation of God our.
11 Depart! Depart! Go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Go out from among her! Cleanse yourselves, you who carry the LORD’s vessels.
Depart depart go out from there an unclean [thing] may not you touch go out from [the] midst of it purify yourselves O bearers of [the] vessels of Yahweh.
12 For you shall not go out in haste, neither shall you go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
For not in haste you will go out and in flight not you will go! for [will be] going before you Yahweh and [will be] rearguard your [the] God of Israel.
13 Behold, my servant will deal wisely. He will be exalted and lifted up, and will be very high.
There! he will prosper servant my he will be high and he will be lifted up and he will be exalted exceedingly.
14 Just as many were astonished at you— his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men—
Just as they were appalled on you many [people] so [was] a disfigurement from a person appearance his and form his from [the] children of humankind.
15 so he will cleanse many nations. Kings will shut their mouths at him; for they will see that which had not been told them, and they will understand that which they had not heard.
So he will startle nations many on him they will shut kings mouth their for [that] which not it had been recounted to them they will see and [that] which not they had heard they will understand.
