Isaiah 52 — Context

10

The LORD reveals his royal power in the sight of all the nations; the entire earth sees our God deliver.

11

Leave! Leave! Get out of there! Don’t touch anything unclean! Get out of it! Stay pure, you who carry the LORD’s holy items!

12

Yet do not depart quickly or leave in a panic. For the LORD goes before you; the God of Israel is your rear guard.

13

The Lord Will Vindicate His Servant“Look, my servant will succeed! He will be elevated, lifted high, and greatly exalted–

14

(just as many were horrified by the sight of you) he was so disfigured he no longer looked like a man; his form was so marred he no longer looked human–

15

so now he will startle many nations. Kings will be shocked by his exaltation, for they will witness something unannounced to them, and they will understand something they had not heard about.
