Isaiah 62:1-4

For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,

And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet,

Until her ^arighteousness goes forth like brightness,

And her ^bsalvation like a torch that is burning.

The ^anations will see your righteousness,

And all kings your glory;

And you will be called by a new ^bname

Which the mouth of Yahweh will designate.

You will also be a ^acrown of glory in the hand of Yahweh,

And a turban of royalty in the hand of your God.

It will no longer be said to you, “¹^aForsaken,”

Nor to your land will it any longer be said, “²Desolate”;

But you will be called, “³My delight is in her,”

And your land, “⁴^bMarried”;

For ^cYahweh takes pleasure in you,

And to Him your land will be married.

Isaiah 62:6

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed ^awatchmen;

All day and all night they will never keep silent.

You who ^bremind Yahweh, take no rest for yourselves;

And ^agive Him no rest until He establishes

And sets ^bJerusalem as a praise in the earth.

You will ^aarise and have ^bcompassion on Zion—

For ^cit is time to be gracious to it,

For the ^dappointed time has come.

For Your slaves ¹find pleasure in its stones

And show grace to its dust—

¹So the ²^anations will fear the name of Yahweh

And ^ball the kings of the earth Your glory.

For Yahweh has ^abuilt up Zion;

He has ^bappeared in His glory.

He has ^aturned toward the prayer of the ¹destitute

And has not despised their prayer.
