Isaiah 12:4-5

12:4 At that time you will say:

“Praise the Lord!

Ask him for help!

Publicize his mighty acts among the nations!

Make it known that he is unique!

12:5 Sing to the Lord, for he has done magnificent things,

let this be known throughout the earth!


tn Or “in that day” (KJV).

tn Heb “call in his name,” i.e., “invoke his name.”

tn Heb “bring to remembrance that his name is exalted.” The Lord’s “name” stands here for his character and reputation.

tc The translation follows the marginal reading (Qere), which is a Hophal participle from יָדַע (yada’), understood here in a gerundive sense.
