Isaiah 12:5
3 With joy you will draw water from the springs of salvation,
4 and on that day you will say: “Give praise to the LORD; proclaim His name! Make His works known among the peoples; declare that His name is exalted.
Sing to the LORD, for He has done glorious things. Let this be known in all the earth.
6 Cry out and sing, O citizen of Zion, for great among you is the Holy One of Israel.”
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
