And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name. (62:2) 28 69 82 Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God (62:3) Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the Lord delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married (62:4) For [as] a young man marrieth a virgin, [so] shall thy sons marry thee: and [as] the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, [so] shall thy God rejoice over thee (62:5) I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence (62:6) And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth (62:7) The Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn [to be] meat for thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured: (62:8) But they that have gathered it shall eat it and praise the Lord; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness (62:9) 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 a standard for the people (62:10) Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward [is] with him, and his work before him (62:11) And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the Lord: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken
(62:12)
