Isaiah 62:1-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Vindication and Salvation of Zion
62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
until her vindication shines out like the dawn
and her salvation like a burning torch.(A)
2 The nations shall see your vindication
and all the kings your glory,
and you shall be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will give.(B)
3 You shall be a beautiful crown in the hand of the Lord
and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.(C)
4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken,
and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,
but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her
and your land Married,
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land shall be married.(D)
5 For as a young man marries a young woman,
so shall your builder[a] marry you,
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so shall your God rejoice over you.(E)
