Isaiah
Chapter 62
1
For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace,
and
for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest,
until
the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness,
and
the salvation thereof as a lamp that burns.
2
And the Gentiles shall see your righteousness,
and
all kings your glory.
And
you shall be called by a new name,
which
the mouth of Jehovah/God shall name.
3
You shall also be a crown of glory
in
the hand of Jehovah/God,
and
a royal diadem in the hand of your 'Elohiym/Godhead.
4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken.
Neither shall your land any more be termed Desolate.
But
you shall be called Hephzi-Bah,
{Chephtsiy bah - name means 'my delight is in her'}
and
your land Beulah
{ba`al - passive participle - 'to lord over'/'to be husband over'}.
For
Jehovah/God delights in you,
and
your land shall be married.
5
For as a young man marries a maiden/virgin,
so
shall your sons marry you.
And
as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so
shall your 'Elohiym/Godhead rejoice over you.
6
I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem,
which
shall never hold their peace day nor night.
You who make mention of Jehovah/God, keep not silence.
7
And give him no rest, till he establishes,
and
till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8
Jehovah/God has sworn by his right hand,
and
by the arm of his strength,
Surely
I will no more give your corn to be meat for your enemies.
And
the sons of the stranger shall not drink your wine,
for
that which you have labored.
9
But those who have gathered it shall eat it,
and
praise Jehovah/God.
And
those who have brought it together
shall
drink it in the courts of my holiness.
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 a standard for the people.
11
Behold, Jehovah/God has proclaimed unto the end of the world,
Say
you to the daughter of Zion,
Behold,
your salvation comes.
Behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
12
And they shall call them, The holy people,
The
redeemed of Jehovah/God.
And
you shall be called,
Sought
out,
A
city not forsaken.
