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 And the nations shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of Yahweh shall name.³ You shall also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Yahweh, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.⁴ You shall no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall your land anymore be termed Desolate: but you shall be called Hephzi-bah, and your land Beulah; for Yahweh delights in you, and your land shall be married.⁵ For as a young man takes possession of a virgin, so shall your sons take possession of 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 nor night: you that are Yahweh's remembrancers, take no rest,⁷ and give him no rest, until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.⁸ Yahweh 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 shall not drink your new wine, for which you have labored:⁹ but those that have garnered it shall eat it, and praise Yahweh; and those that have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.

¹⁰ Go through, go through the gates; prepare the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up an ensign for the peoples.¹¹ Look, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth, Say to the daughter of Zion, Look, your salvation comes; look, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.¹² And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Yahweh: and you shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
