Isaiah 62
New American Standard Bible 1995
Zion’s Glory and New Name
1For Zion’sH6726 sakeH4616 I will not keepH2814 silentH2814, And for Jerusalem’sH3389 sakeH4616 I will not keepH8252 quietH8252, UntilH5704 her 1righteousnessH6664 goesH3318 forthH3318 like brightnessH5051, And her 2salvationH3444 like a torchH3940 that is burningH1197.2The 3nationsH1471 will seeH7200 your righteousnessH6664, And allH3605 kingsH4428 your gloryH3519; And you will be calledH7121 by a newH2319 4nameH8034 WhichH834 the mouthH6310 of the LordH3068 will designateH5344.3You will also be a 5crownH5850 of beautyH8597 in the handH3027 of the LordH3068, And a royalH4410 6diademH6797 in the handH3709 of your GodH430.4It will noH3808 longerH5750 be saidH559 to you, “78ForsakenH5800,” NorH3808 to your landH776 will it anyH5750 longerH5750 be saidH559, “9DesolateH8077”; But you will be calledH7121, “10My delightH2656 is in her,” And your landH776, “1112MarriedH1166”; For the 13LordH3068 delightsH2654 in you, And to Him your landH776 will be marriedH1166.5For as a youngH970 manH970 marriesH1166 a virginH1330, So your sonsH1121 will marryH1166 you; And as the 14bridegroomH2860 rejoicesH4885 overH5921 the brideH3618, So your 15GodH430 will rejoiceH7797 overH5921 you.
6On your wallsH2346, O JerusalemH3389, I have appointedH6485 16watchmenH8104; AllH3605 dayH3117 and allH3605 nightH3915 they will neverH3808 keepH2814 silentH2814. You who 17remindH2142 the LordH3068, take noH408 restH1824 for yourselves;7And 18giveH5414 Him noH408 restH1824 untilH5704 He establishesH3559 And makesH7760 19JerusalemH3389 a praiseH8416 in the earthH776.820The LordH3068 has swornH7650 by His rightH3225 handH3225 and by His strongH5797 armH2220, “I will 21neverH518 againH5750 giveH5414 your grainH1715 as foodH3978 for your enemiesH340; NorH518 will 22foreignersH1121H5236 drinkH8354 your newH8492 wineH8492 for whichH834 you have laboredH3021.”9But those who 23garnerH622 it will eatH398 it and praiseH1984 the LordH3068; And those who gatherH6908 it will drinkH8354 it in the courtsH2691 of My sanctuaryH6944.
10GoH5674 throughH5674, 24goH5674 throughH5674 the gatesH8179, ClearH6437 the wayH1870 25for the peopleH5971; 26BuildH5549 up, buildH5549 up the 27highwayH4546, RemoveH5619 the stonesH68, liftH7311 up a 28standardH5251 overH5921 the peoplesH5971.11BeholdH2009, the LordH3068 has proclaimedH8085 to the 29endH7097 of the earthH776, 30SayH559 to the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726, “LoH2009, your 31salvationH3468 comesH935; 32BeholdH2009 His rewardH7939 is with Him, and His recompenseH6468 beforeH6440 Him.”12And they will callH7121 them, “33The holyH6944 peopleH5971, The 34redeemedH1350 of the LordH3068”; And you will be calledH7121, “SoughtH1875 out, a cityH5892 35not forsakenH5800.”
