Chapter 62
Isai ACV 62:1  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.
Isai ACV 62:2  And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory. And thou shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah shall name.
Isai ACV 62:3  Thou shall also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
Isai ACV 62:4  Thou shall no more be termed Forsaken, nor shall thy land any more be termed Desolate. But thou shall be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah, for Jehovah delights in thee, and thy land shall be married.
Isai ACV 62:5  For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
Isai ACV 62:6  I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem. They shall never keep silent day nor night. Ye who are Jehovah's reminders, take ye no rest,
Isai ACV 62:7  and give him no rest, till he establishes, and till he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
Isai ACV 62:8  Jehovah has 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 have labored.
Isai ACV 62:9  But those who have garnered it shall eat it, and praise Jehovah. And those who have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.
Isai ACV 62:10  Go 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.
Isai ACV 62:11  Behold, Jehovah has proclaimed to the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation comes. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.
Isai ACV 62:12  And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah. And thou shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
