Isaiah 40:9

The Greatness of God

9 Go on up to a high mountain,
O Zion, aherald of good news;
Or  O herald of good news to Zion

lift up your voice with strength,
O Jerusalem, herald of good news;
Or  O herald of good news to Jerusalem

lift it up, fear not;
say to the cities of Judah,
Behold your God!”

Isaiah 52:7-10

7 dHow beautiful upon the mountains
are the feet of him who brings good news,
who publishes peace, ewho brings good news of happiness,
who publishes salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns.”
8The voice of fyour watchmen—they lift up their voice;
together they sing for joy;
gfor eye to eye they see
the return of the Lord to Zion.
9 hBreak forth together into singing,
iyou waste places of Jerusalem,
for jthe Lord has comforted his people;
he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 kThe Lord has bared his holy arm
before the eyes of all the nations,
land all the ends of the earth shall see
the salvation of our God.

Isaiah 54:1

The Eternal Covenant of Peace

1 mSing, O barren one, who did not bear;
break forth into singing and cry aloud,
you who have not been in labor!
For the children of nthe desolate one owill be more
than the children of her who is married,” says the Lord.

Zephaniah 3:14

Israel’s Joy and Restoration

14 pSing aloud, O daughter of Zion;
shout, O Israel!
Rejoice and exult with all your heart,
O daughter of Jerusalem!

Peace in heaven and uglory in the highest!” 39 vAnd some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” 40He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, wthe very stones would cry out.”
