Isaiah 51:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ Wake up, Lord!
    Get ready to show your strength!
Do great things, as you did in past days,
    when our ancestors were alive.
Remember how you cut the monster, Rahab, into pieces.^[a]
10 You made the sea become dry,
    so that there was a path through the deep water.
The slaves that you rescued
    could then cross over.^[b]
11 The people that the Lord has rescued
    will return from exile.
They will sing with joy
    while they go into Zion city.
Their joy will be like a crown
    that they wear on their heads for ever.
They will continue to be very happy.
    They will never be sad or weep again.
