1. For the sake of Zion I will not keep silent,and for the sake of Jerusalem I will not restuntil her righteousness goes forth as brightnessand her salvation as a lamp that burns.
2. The nations shall see your righteousness,and all kings your glory.And you shall be called by a new name,which the mouth of the Lord shall name.
3. You shall also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lordand a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4. You shall no more be termed Forsaken,nor shall your land 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.
5. For as a young man marries a virgin,so your sons shall marry you;and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,so your God shall rejoice over you.
6. I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem,who shall never hold their peace day nor night.You who remind the Lord,do not keep silent;
7. give Him no rest until He establishesand makes Jerusalem a glory in the earth.
8. The Lord has sworn by His right handand by His strong arm:Surely I will no longer give your grainas food for your enemies;and the sons of the foreigners shall not drink your winefor which you have labored.
9. But those who have gathered it shall eat itand praise the Lord;and those who have brought it shall drink itin the courts of My sanctuary.
10. Go through, go through the gates.Prepare the way of the people;build up, build up the highway.Remove the stones;lift up a standard over the peoples.
