⁵ “Now see what has happened,” says the Lord.
    “Another nation has taken away my people for nothing.
This nation who rules them makes fun of me,” says the Lord.
    “All day long they speak against me.
⁶ This has happened so my people will know who I am,
    and so, on that future day, they will know
that I am the one speaking to them.
    It will really be me.”

⁷ How beautiful is the person
    who comes over the mountains to bring good news,
who announces peace
    and brings good news,
    who announces salvation
and says to Jerusalem,
    “Your God is King.”
