For there shall be a day when watchmen will call
    in the hill country of E′phraim:
‘Arise, and let us go up to Zion,
    to the Lord our God.’”

For thus says the Lord:
“Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob,
    and raise shouts for the chief of the nations;
proclaim, give praise, and say,
    ‘The Lord has saved his people,
    the remnant of Israel.’
Behold, I will bring them from the north country,
    and gather them from the farthest parts of the earth,
among them the blind and the lame,
    the woman with child and her who is in travail, together;
    a great company, they shall return here.

There will be a day when watchmen(A) cry out
    on the hills of Ephraim,
‘Come, let us go up to Zion,
    to the Lord our God.’”(B)

This is what the Lord says:

“Sing(C) with joy for Jacob;
    shout for the foremost(D) of the nations.
Make your praises heard, and say,
    Lord, save(E) your people,
    the remnant(F) of Israel.’
See, I will bring them from the land of the north(G)
    and gather(H) them from the ends of the earth.
Among them will be the blind(I) and the lame,(J)
    expectant mothers and women in labor;
    a great throng will return.
