Isaiah Chapter 62 (NKJV Bible)

Compare with Version:

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 [1†]The Gentiles shall see your righteousness, And all [2†]kings your glory. [3†]You shall be called by a new name, Which the mouth of the LORD will name.

³ You shall also be [4†]a crown of glory In the hand of the LORD, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God.

⁴ [5†]You shall no longer be termed [6†]Forsaken, Nor shall your land any more be termed [7†]Desolate; But you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; For the LORD delights in you, And your land shall be married.

⁵ For as a young man marries a virgin, So shall your sons marry you; And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, [8†]So shall your God rejoice over you.

⁶ [9†]I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent,

⁷ And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem [10†]a praise in the earth.

⁸ The LORD has sworn by His right hand And by the arm of His strength: “Surely I will no longer [11†]give your grain As food for your enemies; And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine, For which you have labored.

⁹ But those who have gathered it shall eat it, And praise the LORD; Those who have brought it together shall drink it [12†]in My holy courts.”

¹⁰ Go through, Go through the gates! [13†]Prepare the way for the people; Build up, Build up the highway! Take out the stones, [14†]Lift up a banner for the peoples!

¹¹ Indeed the LORD has proclaimed To the end of the world: [15†]“Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Surely your salvation is coming; Behold, His [16†]reward is with Him, And His work before Him.’ ”

¹² And they shall call them The Holy People, The Redeemed of the LORD; And you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.
