Isaias (Isaiah) 62
62
1FOR Sion's sake I will not hold my peace, and for the sake of Jerusalem I will not rest till her just one come forth as brightness, and her saviour be lighted as a lamp.
2And the Gentiles shall see thy just one, and all kings thy glorious one: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.
3And thou shalt be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4Thou shalt no more be called Forsaken, and thy land shall no more be called Desolate: but thou shalt be called My pleasure in her, and thy land inhabited. Because the Lord hath been well pleased with thee: and thy land shall be inhabited.
5For the young man shall dwell with the virgin: and thy children shall dwell in thee. And the bridegroom shall rejoice over the bride: and thy God shall rejoice over thee.
6Upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen, all the day and all the night: they shall never hold their peace. You that are mindful of the Lord, hold not your peace,
7And give him no silence till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8The Lord hath sworn by his right hand and by the arm of his strength: Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thy enemies: and the sons of the strangers shall not drink thy wine, for which thou hast laboured.
9For they that gather it shall eat it and shall praise the Lord: and they that bring it together shall drink it in my holy courts.
10Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people, make the road plain, pick out the stones, and lift up the standard to the people.
11Behold, the Lord hath made it to be heard in the ends of the earth. Tell the daughter of Sion: Behold, thy Saviour cometh. Behold, his reward is with him and his work before him.
12And they shall call them: The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord. But thou shalt be called: A city sought after and not forsaken.

Isaiah 62
62
Zion’s Salvation and New Name
1For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep still,
until her righteousness shines like a bright light,
her salvation like a blazing torch.
2Nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory.
You will be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3You will be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord,
a royal diadem in the palm of your God.
4No longer will you be called Forsaken,#62:4 Hebrew Azubah
nor your land named Desolate;#62:4 Hebrew Shemamah
but you will be called Hephzibah,#62:4 Hephzibah means My delight is in her.
and your land Beulah;#62:4 Beulah means married.
for the Lord will take delight in you,
and your land will be His bride.
5For as a young man marries a young woman,
so your sons will marry you;
and as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,
so your God will rejoice over you.
6On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen;
they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord
shall take no rest for yourselves,
7nor give Him any rest
until He establishes Jerusalem
and makes her the praise of the earth.
8The Lord has sworn by His right hand
and by His mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain
to your enemies for food,
nor will foreigners drink the new wine
for which you have toiled.
9For those who harvest grain
will eat it and praise the Lord,
and those who gather grapes
will drink the wine in My holy courts.”
10Go out, go out through the gates;
prepare the way for the people!
Build it up, build up the highway;
clear away the stones;
raise a banner for the nations!
11Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the ends of the earth,
“Say to Daughter Zion:
See, your Savior comes!
Look, His reward is with Him,
and His recompense goes before Him.”
12And they will be called the Holy People,
the Redeemed of The Lord;
and you will be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
