[ Read](/kjv/isaiah/12)[ Commentary](/study/isaiah/12)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/isaiah/12) Audio

 1 And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me.

 2 Behold, God *is* my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH *is* my strength and *my* song; he also is become my salvation.

 3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.

 4 And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted.*

 5 Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this *is* known in all the earth.

 6 Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great *is* the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.*
 
[Isaiah 11](/study/isaiah/11) [Isaiah 13](/study/isaiah/13)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
**And in that day -**The day referred to in the previous chapter, the time of the Messiah, when the effects of his reign shall be seen everywhere. The duty of praise, however, is couched in such language as to make it applicable to the event predicted in the former part of the prophecy [Isaiah 10:0](/kjv/isaiah/10/0) - the delivering of the nation from the invasion of Sennacherib, as well as the more glorious event on which the prophet fixed his eye [Isaiah 11:0](/kjv/isaiah/11/0) - the coming and reign of the Messiah. The language of this song of praise would be appropriate to both these events. 

**Thou shalt say -**The address to an individual here, in the term ‘thou,’ is equivalent to “everyone,” meaning that “all” who were thus interested in the divine interposition should say it. 

**O Lord -**O Yahweh - the great author of this interposition. 

**I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me -**If this language is applied to the Jews, and supposed to be used by them in regard to the invasion of Sennacherib, it means, that God suffered their land to be invaded, and to be subjected to calamities, in consequence of their sins ([Isaiah 10:6](/kjv/isaiah/10/6) ff.) If it is supposed to be applied to the time of the Messiah, then it is language which every redeemed sinner may use, that God was angry with him, but that his anger is turned away. As applicable to the redeemed, it is an acknowledgement which they all feel, that they have no claim to his mercy, and that it lays the foundation for unceasing praise that his anger is turned away by the plan of salvation.
