Isaiah 62 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

Nations will see your righteousness

and all kings, your glory.

You will be given a new name

that the LORD’s mouth will announce.

You will be a glorious crown in the LORD’s hand,

and a royal diadem in the palm of your God’s hand.

You will no longer be called Deserted,

and your land will not be called Desolate;

instead, you will be called My Delight Is in Her,[fn]

and your land Married;[fn]

for the LORD delights in you,

and your land will be married.

For as a young man marries a young woman,

so your sons will marry you;

and as a groom rejoices over his bride,

so your God will rejoice over you.

Jerusalem,

I have appointed watchmen on your walls;

they will never be silent, day or night.

There is no rest for you,

who remind the LORD.

Do not give him rest

until he establishes and makes Jerusalem

the praise of the earth.

The LORD has sworn with his right hand

and his strong arm:

I will no longer give your grain

to your enemies for food,

and foreigners will not drink the new wine

for which you have labored.

For those who gather grain will eat it

and praise the LORD,

and those who harvest the grapes will drink the wine

in my holy courts.

Go out, go out through the city gates;

prepare a way for the people!

Build it up, build up the highway;

clear away the stones!

Raise a banner for the peoples.

Look, the LORD has proclaimed

to the ends of the earth,

“Say to Daughter Zion:

Look, your salvation is coming,

his wages are with him,

and his reward accompanies him.”

And they will be called[fn] the Holy People,

the LORD’s Redeemed;

and you will be called Cared For,

A City Not Deserted.
