Yesaya 52:10-12

52:10 The Lord reveals ¹  his royal power ² 

in the sight of all the nations;

the entire ³  earth sees

our God deliver. ⁴ 

52:11 Leave! Leave! Get out of there!

Don’t touch anything unclean!

Get out of it!

Stay pure, you who carry the Lord’s holy items! ⁵ 

52:12 Yet do not depart quickly

or leave in a panic. ⁶ 

For the Lord goes before you;

the God of Israel is your rear guard.

[52:10]  ¹ tn Heb “lays bare”; NLT “will demonstrate.”

[52:10]  ² tn Heb “his holy arm.” This is a metonymy for his power.

[52:10]  ³ tn Heb “the remote regions,” which here stand for the extremities and everything in between.

[52:10]  ⁴ tn Heb “the deliverance of our God.” “God” is a subjective genitive here.

[52:11]  ⁵ tn Heb “the vessels of the Lord” (so KJV, NAB).

[52:12]  ⁶ tn Heb “or go in flight”; NAB “leave in headlong flight.”
