Isaiah 52:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner.
    Now shake off the dust and stand up.
Jerusalem, you once were a prisoner.
    But now free yourself from the chains around your neck.
³ This is what the Lord says:
“You were not sold for a price.
    So you will be saved without cost.”
⁴ This is what the Lord God says:
“First my people went down to Egypt to live.
    Later Assyria made them slaves.
