The Book of Isaiah
62: 1For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not
rest, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp
that burneth. 62:2And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy
glory, and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah shall
name. 62:3Thou shalt also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal
diadem in the hand of thy God. 62:4Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither
shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah,
and thy land Beulah; for Jehovah delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
62:5For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee; and as the
bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee. 62:6I have
set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem; they shall never hold their peace day
nor night: ye that are Jehovah's remembrancers, take ye no rest, 62:7and give him no
rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. 62:8Jehovah
hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more
give thy grain to be food for thine enemies; and foreigners shall not drink thy new
wine, for which thou hast labored: 62:9but they that have garnered it shall eat it, and
praise Jehovah; and they that have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my
sanctuary. 62:10Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people;
cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up an ensign for the
peoples. 62:11Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to
the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with
him, and his recompense before him. 62:12And they shall call them The holy people,
The redeemed of Jehovah: and thou shalt be called Sought out, A city not
forsaken.
