Renew a resolute spirit within me! ² 

Yesaya 51:3

51:3 Certainly the Lord will console Zion;

He will make her wilderness like Eden,

her desert like the Garden of the Lord.

Happiness and joy will be restored to ³  her,

thanksgiving and the sound of music.

[51:10]  ² tn Heb “and a reliable spirit renew in my inner being.”

[51:3]  ³ tn Heb “found in” (so NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).
