How delightful on the mountains Are the feet of one who brings ^(C1)good news, Who announces ^(F1)peace And brings good news of ^(F2)happiness, Who announces salvation, And says to Zion, "Your ^(C2)God ^(F3)reigns!"

Listen! Your watchmen raise their ^(C1)voices, They shout joyfully together; For they will see ^(F1)with their own eyes When the LORD restores Zion.

^(C1)Be cheerful, shout joyfully together, You ^(C2)ruins of Jerusalem; For the LORD has comforted His people, He has ^(C3)redeemed Jerusalem.

The LORD has bared His holy ^(C1)arm In the sight of all the nations, ^(F1)So that ^(C2)all the ends of the earth may see The salvation of our God.

^(C1)Depart, depart, go out from there, ^(C2)Do not touch what is unclean; Go out of the midst of her, ^(C3)purify yourselves, You who carry the vessels of the LORD.

But you will not go out in ^(C1)a hurry, Nor will you go ^(F1)as fugitives; For the ^(C2)LORD will go before you, And ^(C3)the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
