Isaiah 62
Legacy Standard Bible►► 

Zion’s Glory and New Name

1For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,

And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet,

Until her righteousness goes forth like brightness,

And her salvation like a torch that is burning.

2The 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 designate.

3You will also be a crown of glory in the hand of Yahweh,

And a turban of royalty in the hand of your God.

4It will no longer be said to you, “[†]Forsaken,”

Nor to your land will it any longer be said, “[†]Desolate”;

But you will be called, “[†]My delight is in her,”

And your land, “[†]Married”;

For Yahweh takes pleasure in you,

And to Him your land will be married.

5For as a young man marries a virgin,

So your sons will marry you;

And as the [†]bridegroom rejoices over the bride,

So your God will rejoice over you.

6On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen;

All day and all night they will never keep silent.

You who remind Yahweh, take no rest for yourselves;

7And give Him no rest until He establishes

And sets Jerusalem as a praise in the earth.

8Yahweh has sworn by His right hand and by His strong arm,

“I will never again give your grain as food for your enemies;

Nor will [†]foreigners drink your new wine for which you have labored.”

9But those who collect it will eat it and praise Yahweh;

And those who gather it will drink it in the courts of My sanctuary.

10Go through, go through the gates,

Clear the way [†]for the people;

Build up, build up the highway,

Remove the stones, raise up a standard over the peoples.

11Behold, Yahweh has [†]announced 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.”

12And they will call them, “The holy people,

The redeemed of Yahweh”;

And you will be called, “Sought out, a city not forsaken.”
