Arise O Jerusalem


Take off the garment of your sorrow and affliction, O Jerusalem,

and put on forever the beauty of the glory from God.

      Put on the robe of the righteousness that comes from God;

put on your head the diadem of the glory of the Everlasting;

      for God will show your splendor everywhere under heaven.

      For God will give you evermore the name,

“Righteous Peace, Godly Glory.”

      
Arise, O Jerusalem, stand upon the height;

look toward the east,

and see your children gathered from west and east

at the word of the Holy One,

rejoicing that God has remembered them….


The woods and every fragrant tree

have shaded Israel at God’s command.

      For God will lead Israel with joy,

in the light of his glory,

with the mercy and righteousness that come from

him (Baruch 5).
