Isaiah 62:1-6 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. I will not keep silent because of Zion,and I will not keep still because of Jerusalem, until her righteousness shines like a bright light and her salvation, like a flaming torch.

2. Nations will see your righteousness and all kings, your glory.You will be called by a new namethat the Lord’s mouth will announce.

3. You will be a glorious crown in the Lord’s hand,and a royal diadem in the palm of your God.

4. You will no longer be called Deserted, and your land will not be called Desolate;instead, you will be called My Delight is in Her, and your land Married; for the Lord delights in you,and your land will be married.

5. For as a young man marries a young woman,so your sons will marry you;and as a groom rejoices over his bride,so your God will rejoice over you.

6. Jerusalem,I have appointed watchmen on your walls; they will never be silent, day or night.There is no rest for you,who remind the Lord.
