Isaiah 62
62
The Salvation of Zion
1For the sake of Zion I will not keep silent, # Isa 62:6–7
and for the sake of Jerusalem I will not rest
until her righteousness goes forth as brightness # Pr 4:18
and her salvation as a lamp that burns.
2The nations shall see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory.
And you shall be called by a new name,
which the mouth of the Lord shall name. # Isa 62:4, 12
3You shall also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord
and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. # Zec 9:16; 1Th 2:19
4You shall no more be termed Forsaken,
nor shall your land be termed Desolate;
but you shall be called My Delight Is In Her,
and your land Married;
for the Lord delights in you, # Jer 32:41; Zep 3:17
and your land shall be married.
5For as a young man marries a virgin,
so your sons shall marry you;
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so your God shall rejoice over you. # Isa 65:19
6I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem, # Isa 52:8
who shall never hold their peace day or night.
You who remind the Lord,
do not keep silent;
7give Him no rest until He establishes
and makes Jerusalem a glory in the earth. # Jer 33:9; Zep 3:19–20
8The Lord has sworn by His right hand
and by His strong arm:
Surely I will no longer give your grain
as food for your enemies;
and the sons of the foreigners shall not drink your wine
for which you have labored. # Dt 28:33; Jer 5:17
9But those who have gathered it shall eat it
and praise the Lord; # Dt 12:12
and those who have brought it shall drink it
in the courts of My sanctuary.
10Go through, go through the gates.
Prepare the way of the people;
build up, build up the highway.
Remove the stones; # Isa 57:14
lift up a standard over the peoples. # Isa 49:22
11Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the ends of the earth:
Say to the daughter of Zion, # Zec 9:9; Mt 21:5
“Behold, your salvation comes;
behold, His reward is with Him, # Rev 22:12
and His recompense before Him.”
12They shall call them The Holy People,
the Redeemed of the Lord;
and you shall be called Sought Out,
a City Not Forsaken. # Isa 62:4
