5:1 Jerusalem, take off your robe of mourning and misery; put on forever the splendor of glory from God:
5:2 Wrapped in the mantle of justice from God, place on your head the diadem of the glory of the Eternal One.
5:3 For God will show your splendor to all under the heavens;
5:4 you will be named by God forever: the peace of justice, the glory of God’s worship.
5:5 Rise up, Jerusalem! stand upon the heights; look to the east and see your children Gathered from east to west at the word of the Holy One, rejoicing that they are remembered by God.
5:6 Led away on foot by their enemies they left you: but God will bring them back to you carried high in glory as on royal thrones.
5:7 For God has commanded that every lofty mountain and the age-old hills be made low, That the valleys be filled to make level ground, that Israel may advance securely in the glory of God.
5:8 The forests and every kind of fragrant tree have overshadowed Israel at God’s command;
5:9 For God is leading Israel in joy by the light of his glory, with the mercy and justice that are his.
