| 62:1 |
For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her vindication goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch.
|
| 62:2 |
The nations shall see your vindication, and all the kings your glory;and you shall be called by a new name which the mouth of the LORD will give.
|
| 62:3 |
You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
|
| 62:4 |
You shall no more be termed Forsaken, and your land shall no more be termed Desolate;but you shall be called My delight is in her, and your land Married;for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall be married.
|
| 62:5 |
For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall your sons marry you, and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you.
|
| 62:6 |
Upon your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen;all the day and all the night they shall never be silent. You who put the LORD in remembrance, take no rest,
|
| 62:7 |
and give him no rest until he establishes Jerusalem and makes it a praise in the earth.
|
| 62:8 |
The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: 'I will not again give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners shall not drink your wine for which you have labored;
|
| 62:9 |
but those who garner it shall eat it and praise the LORD, and those who gather it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.'
|
| 62:10 |
Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people;build up, build up the highway, clear it of stones, lift up an ensign over the peoples.
|

Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your salvation comes;behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.'
|
| 62:12 |
And they shall be called The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD;and you shall be called Sought out, a city not forsaken.
