Isaiah 51:2-4

New Catholic Bible

² Look to Abraham, your father,
    and to Sarah who gave birth to you.
When I called him, he was but one,
    but I blessed him and made him many.
³ The Lord will comfort Zion
    and have pity on all her ruins.
He will make her deserts like Eden
    and her wastelands into the garden of the Lord.
Joy and gladness will resound in her,
    thanksgiving and the sound of music.
⁴ Listen attentively to me, my people,
    and pay heed to me, my nation.
For the law will issue forth from me,
    and my justice will serve as a light to the nations.
