For Zion’s sake I (Isaiah) will not be silent,And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet,Until her ^arighteousness and vindication go forth as brightness,And her ^bsalvation goes forth like a burning torch.2 The ^anations will see your righteousness and vindication by God,And all kings will see your glory;And you will be called by a new ^bnameWhich the mouth of the LORD will designate. Rev 2:173 You will also be considered a ^acrown of glory and splendor in the hand of the LORD,And a royal ¹diadem exceedingly beautiful in the hand of your God.4 It will no longer be said of you Judah, “^aAzubah (Abandoned) ,”Nor will it any longer be said of your land, “Shemamah (Desolate)”;But you will be called, “Hephzibah (My Delight is in Her) ,”And your land, “¹^bMarried”;For the ^cLORD delights in you,And to Him your land will be married owned and protected by the LORD.5 For as a young man marries a virgin O Jerusalem,¹So your sons will marry you;And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,So your ^aGod will rejoice over you.

6 On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed and stationed ^awatchmen (prophets) ,Who will never keep silent day or night;You who ^bprofess the LORD, take no rest for yourselves,7 And ^agive Him no rest from your prayers until He establishes ^bJerusalemAnd makes her a praise on the earth.8 ^aThe LORD has sworn an oath by His right hand and by His mighty arm,“I will ^bnever again give your grain as food for your enemies,Nor will the invading foreigners drink your new wine for which you have labored.”9 But they who have ^aharvested it will eat it and praise the LORD,And they who have gathered it will drink it at the feasts celebrated in the courtyards of My sanctuary.

10 Go through, ^ago through the gates,Clear the way for the people;^bBuild up, build up the ^chighway,Remove the stones, lift up a ^dbanner over the peoples.11 Listen carefully, the LORD has proclaimed to the ^aend of the earth,^bSay to the Daughter of Zion, “Look now, your ^csalvation is coming in the LORD;^dIndeed, His reward is with Him, and His restitution accompanies Him.” Is 40:1012 And they will call them “^aThe Holy People,The ^bRedeemed of the LORD”;And you will be called “Sought Out, A City ^cNot Deserted.”
