1 Blow the trumpet in Zion with the trumpet of the sign; proclaim in Jerusalem the voice of one bringing good news, that God has had mercy on Israel in their visitation
2 Stand, Jerusalem, on high and see your children gathered together from east and west, all at once, by the Lord
3 From the north they come with the joy of their God; from islands far away God gathered them together.
4 He humbled the high mountains into level ground for them; the hills fled from before their entrance.
5 The thickets shaded them in their passing; every tree of fragrance God made to spring up for them.
6 so that Israel may pass by in the visitation of the glory of their God
7 Put on, Jerusalem, the garments of your glory; prepare the robe of your holiness, for God has spoken good things for Israel forever and still further
8 May the Lord do what he spoke concerning Israel and Jerusalem; may the Lord raise up Israel in the name of his glory.
9 The mercy of the Lord is upon Israel forever and still
