MLV(i)
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 will see your righteousness and all kings your glory.
And you will be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah will name.
3 You will also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 You will no more be termed Forsaken, nor will your land any more be termed Desolate. But you will be called My Delight is in Her, for Jehovah delights in you and your land will be married. 5 For as a young man marries a virgin, so will your sons marry you. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so will your God rejoice over you.
6 I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem. They will never keep silent day nor night. You* who are Jehovah's reminders, take no rest, 7 and give him no rest, till he establishes and till he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8 Jehovah 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 But those who have garnered it will eat it and praise Jehovah. And those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.
10 Go through, go through the gates. Prepare you* the way of the people. Cast up, cast up the highway. Gather out the stones. Lift up an ensign for the peoples. 11 Behold, Jehovah 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 And they will call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah. And you will be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
And you will be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah will name.
3 You will also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 You will no more be termed Forsaken, nor will your land any more be termed Desolate. But you will be called My Delight is in Her, for Jehovah delights in you and your land will be married. 5 For as a young man marries a virgin, so will your sons marry you. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so will your God rejoice over you.
