Isaiah 62:1-5

1For Zion’sH6726 sake will I not hold my peaceH2814, and for Jerusalem’sH3389 sake I will not restH8252, until the righteousnessH6664 thereof go forthH3318 as brightnessH5051, and the salvationH3444 thereof as a lampH3940 that burnethH1197. 2And the GentilesH1471 shall seeH7200 thy righteousnessH6664, and all kingsH4428 thy gloryH3519: and thou shalt be calledH7121 by a newH2319 nameH5344, which the mouthH6310 of YhwhH3068 shall nameH8034. 3Thou shalt also be a crownH5850 of gloryH8597 in the handH3027 of YhwhH3068, and a royalH4410 diademH6797 in the handH3709 of thy GodH430. 4Thou shalt no more be termedH559 ForsakenH5800; neither shall thy landH776 any more be termedH559 DesolateH8077: but thou shalt be calledH7121 Hephzi–bahH2657, and thy landH776 BeulahH1166: for YhwhH3068 delightethH2654 in thee, and thy landH776 shall be marriedH1166.12

5For as a young manH970 marriethH1166 a virginH1330, so shall thy sonsH1121 marryH1166 thee: and as the bridegroomH2860 rejoicethH4885 over the brideH3618, so shall thy GodH430 rejoiceH7797 over thee.3
