Isaías 62

¹ For Zion's sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burns.

² And the nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory, and you will be called by a new name, which the mouth of Yahweh will name.

³ You will also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Yahweh, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.

⁴ You will no more be termed Forsaken; neither will your land anymore be termed Desolate: but you will be called Hephzi-bah, and your land Beulah; for Yahweh delights in you, and your land will be married.

⁵ For as a young man takes possession of a virgin, so will your sons take possession of you; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so will your God rejoice over you.

⁶ I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will never hold their peace day nor night: you{+} who are Yahweh's remembrancers, take{+} no rest,

⁷ and give him no rest, until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

⁸ Yahweh has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies; and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored:

⁹ but those who have garnered it will eat it, and praise Yahweh; and those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.

¹⁰ Go through, go through the gates; prepare{+} the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up an ensign for the peoples.

¹¹ Look, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth, Say{+} to the daughter of Zion, Look, your salvation comes; look, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.

¹² And they will call them The holy people, The redeemed of Yahweh: and you will be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
