# Isaiah 62

[1](#verse-1) For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness shines out like the dawn, and her salvation like a burning lamp.

[2](#verse-2) The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory. You will be called by a new name, which the LORD’s mouth will name.

[3](#verse-3) You will also be a crown of beauty in the LORD’s hand, and a royal diadem in your God’s hand.

[4](#verse-4) You will not be called Forsaken any more, nor will your land be called Desolate any more; but you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your land will be married.

[5](#verse-5) For as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons will marry you. As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so your God will rejoice over you.

[6](#verse-6) I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem. They will never be silent day nor night. You who call on the LORD, take no rest,

[7](#verse-7) and give him no rest until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise on the earth.

[8](#verse-8) The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, “Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored,

[9](#verse-9) but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise the LORD. Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”

[10](#verse-10) Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way of the people! Build up, build up the highway! Gather out the stones! Lift up a banner for the peoples.

[11](#verse-11) Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him!’”

[12](#verse-12) They will call them “The Holy People, The LORD’s Redeemed”. You will be called “Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken”.
