9  Go on up to a high mountain,

O Zion, ^kherald of good news;¹

lift up your voice with strength,

O Jerusalem, herald of good news;²

lift it up, fear not;

say to the cities of Judah,

“Behold your God!”

10  ^lBehold, the Lord God comes with might,

and his arm rules for him;

^mbehold, his reward is with him,

and his recompense before him.

11  ⁿHe will tend his flock like a shepherd;

^ohe will gather the lambs in his arms;

^phe will carry them in his bosom,

and gently lead those that are with young.

11  Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see¹ and be satisfied;

by his knowledge shall ^bthe righteous one, my servant,

^cmake many to be accounted righteous,

^dand he shall bear their iniquities.

12  ^eTherefore I will divide him a portion with the many,²

^fand he shall divide the spoil with the strong,³

because he poured out his soul to death

and was numbered with the transgressors;

^gyet he bore the sin of many,

and makes intercession for the transgressors.
