CHAPTER 62
Assurance of Zion’s Salvation
Assurance of Jerusalem’s Deliverance
​
1 For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace,
​​And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
​​Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
​​And her salvation as a lamp that burns.
2 ​​The Gentiles shall see your righteousness,
​​And all kings your glory.
​​You shall be called by a new name,
​​Which the mouth of the LORD will name.
3 ​​You shall also be a crown of glory
​​In the hand of the LORD,
​​And a royal diadem
​​In the hand of your God.
4 ​​You shall no longer be termed Forsaken,
​​Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate;
​​But you shall be called Hephzibah,[fn] and your land Beulah;[fn]
​​For the LORD delights in you,
​​And your land shall be married.
5 ​​For as a young man marries a virgin,
​​So shall your sons marry you;
​​And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
​​So shall your God rejoice over you.
​
6 ​​I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
​​They shall never hold their peace day or night.
​​You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent,
7 ​​And give Him no rest till He establishes
​​And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
​
8 ​​The LORD has sworn by His right hand
​​And by the arm of His strength:
​​“Surely I will no longer give your grain
​​As food for your enemies;
​​And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
​​For which you have labored.
9 ​​But those who have gathered it shall eat it,
​​And praise the LORD;
​​Those who have brought it together shall drink it in My holy courts.”
​
10 ​​Go through,
​​Go through the gates!
​​Prepare the way for the people;
​​Build up,
​​Build up the highway!
​​Take out the stones,
​​Lift up a banner for the peoples!
​
11 ​​Indeed the LORD has proclaimed
​​To the end of the world:
​​“Say to the daughter of Zion,
​‘​Surely your salvation is coming;
​​Behold, His reward is with Him,
​​And His work before Him.’ ”
12 ​​And they shall call them The Holy People,
​​The Redeemed of the LORD;
​​And you shall be called Sought Out,
​​A City Not Forsaken.
