1For the sake of Zion I will not be silent, and for the sake of Jerusalem I will not rest until her righteousness comes forth like a blaze and her salvation burns.2And nations will see your righteousness and all kings your glory, and you will be called by a new name which the mouth of the LORD will name.3You will be a crown of splendor in the hand of the LORD and a turban of royalty on the palm of your God.4No longer will it be said to you, "Forsaken," nor to your land, "Desolation" any longer; for it will call you My-Delight-in-Her, and your land, Husbanded; for the LORD delights in you, and your land will be husbanded.5For as a young man marries a virgin, your sons will marry you, and as the joy of a bridegroom over a bride, your God will rejoice over you.6On your walls, Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen; all day and all night continually they will not be silent, you who remind. Do not be silent to the LORD on account of yourselves.7and do not give him silence until he establishes and until he sets Jerusalem as praise in the earth.8The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by the arm of his might: “If I give your grain again as food for your enemies, or if sons of foreignness drink your new wine for which you labored in it.”9For its gatherers will eat it and praise the LORD, and its gatherers will drink it in the courts of my holy things.10Pass through, pass through the gates; clear the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; clear it of stones; lift up a banner over the peoples.11Behold, the LORD has made it heard to the end of the land: "Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his work is before him.'"12And they will call them the holy people, redeemers of the LORD, and he will call you the sought city, the not-abandoned city.
