Isaiah 52:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ The Lord has shown all nations
    his mighty strength;
now everyone will see
    the saving power of our God.

^11 (A) Leave the city of Babylon!
    Don't touch anything filthy.
Wash yourselves. Be ready
to carry back everything sacred
    that belongs to the Lord.
¹² You won't need to run.
    No one is chasing you.
The Lord God of Israel
will lead and protect you
    from enemy attacks.
