1 For Zion's{H6726} sake will I not hold my peace{H2814}{(H8799)}, and for Jerusalem's{H3389} sake I will not rest{H8252}{(H8799)}, until the righteousness{H6664} thereof go forth{H3318}{(H8799)} as brightness{H5051}, and the salvation{H3444} thereof as a lamp{H3940} that burneth{H1197}{(H8799)}.

2 And the Gentiles{H1471} shall see{H7200}{(H8804)} thy righteousness{H6664}, and all kings{H4428} thy glory{H3519}: and thou shalt be called{H7121}{(H8795)} by a new{H2319} name{H5344}{(H8799)}, which the mouth{H6310} of the LORD{H3068} shall name{H8034}.

3 Thou shalt also be a crown{H5850} of glory{H8597} in the hand{H3027} of the LORD{H3068}, and a royal{H4410} diadem{H6797}{(H8675)}{H6797} in the hand{H3709} of thy God{H430}.

4 Thou shalt no more be termed{H559}{(H8735)} Forsaken{H5800}{(H8803)}; neither shall thy land{H776} any more be termed{H559}{(H8735)} Desolate{H8077}: but thou shalt be called{H7121}{(H8735)} Hephzibah{H2657}, and thy land{H776} Beulah{H1166}{(H8803)}: for the LORD{H3068} delighteth{H2654}{(H8804)} in thee, and thy land{H776} shall be married{H1166}{(H8735)}.

5 For as a young man{H970} marrieth{H1166}{(H8799)} a virgin{H1330}, so shall thy sons{H1121} marry{H1166}{(H8799)} thee: and as the bridegroom{H2860} rejoiceth{H4885} over the bride{H3618}, so shall thy God{H430} rejoice{H7797}{(H8799)} over thee.

6 I have set{H6485}{(H8689)} watchmen{H8104}{(H8802)} upon thy walls{H2346}, O Jerusalem{H3389}, which shall never{H8548} hold their peace{H2814}{(H8799)} day{H3117} nor night{H3915}: ye that make mention{H2142}{(H8688)} of the LORD{H3068}, keep not silence{H1824},

7 And give{H5414}{(H8799)} him no rest{H1824}, till he establish{H3559}{(H8787)}, and till he make{H7760}{(H8799)} Jerusalem{H3389} a praise{H8416} in the earth{H776}.

8 The LORD{H3068} hath sworn{H7650}{(H8738)} by his right hand{H3225}, and by the arm{H2220} of his strength{H5797}, Surely I will{H518} no more give{H5414}{(H8799)} thy corn{H1715} to be meat{H3978} for thine enemies{H341}{(H8802)}; and the sons{H1121} of the stranger{H5236} shall not drink{H8354}{(H8799)} thy wine{H8492}, for the which thou hast laboured{H3021}{(H8804)}:

9 But they that have gathered{H622}{(H8764)} it shall eat{H398}{(H8799)} it, and praise{H1984}{(H8765)} the LORD{H3068}; and they that have brought it together{H6908}{(H8764)} shall drink{H8354}{(H8799)} it in the courts{H2691} of my holiness{H6944}.

10 Go through{H5674}{(H8798)}, go through{H5674}{(H8798)} the gates{H8179}; prepare{H6437}{(H8761)} ye the way{H1870} of the people{H5971}; cast up{H5549}{(H8798)}, cast up{H5549}{(H8798)} the highway{H4546}; gather out{H5619}{(H8761)} the stones{H68}; lift up{H7311}{(H8685)} a standard{H5251} for the people{H5971}.

11 Behold, the LORD{H3068} hath proclaimed{H8085}{(H8689)} unto the end{H7097} of the world{H776}, Say{H559}{(H8798)} ye to the daughter{H1323} of Zion{H6726}, Behold, thy salvation{H3468} cometh{H935}{(H8802)}; behold, his reward{H7939} is with him, and his work{H6468} before{H6440} him.

12 And they shall call{H7121}{(H8804)} them, The holy{H6944} people{H5971}, The redeemed{H1350}{(H8803)} of the LORD{H3068}: and thou shalt be called{H7121}{(H8735)}, Sought out{H1875}{(H8803)}, A city{H5892} not forsaken{H5800}{(H8737)}.
