Isaiah 51:2-4
International Children’s Bible
2 Look at Abraham, your ancestor.
Look at Sarah, who gave birth to your ancestors.
Abraham had no children when I called him.
But I blessed him and gave him many descendants.
3 So the Lord will comfort Jerusalem.
He will show mercy to those who live in her ruins.
He will change her deserts into a garden like Eden.
He will make her empty lands like the garden of the Lord.
People there will be very happy.
They will give thanks and sing songs.
4 “My people, listen to me.
My nation, pay attention to me.
I will give the people my teachings.
And my decisions will be like a light to all people.
Isaiah 51:2-4

and to Sarah, who gave you birth.
When I called him he was only one man,
and I blessed him and made him many.(B)
3 The Lord will surely comfort(C) Zion(D)
and will look with compassion on all her ruins;(E)
he will make her deserts like Eden,(F)
her wastelands(G) like the garden of the Lord.
Joy and gladness(H) will be found in her,
thanksgiving(I) and the sound of singing.
