Previous chapter Index Next chapter
1 I will not remain silent for Zion's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest until I rise like light, his truth and his salvation is like a burning lamp.
2 And the peoples shall see your righteousness and all the kings, your glory, and they will call you by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord will be called.
3 And thou shalt be crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4 They will no longer call you "deserted," and your land will no longer be called a 'wilderness', but they will call you "My good pleasure toward him," and your land will be "married," for the Lord is pleased with you, and your land Is combined.
5 As a young man is combined with a virgin, so will your sons be with you. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so will your God rejoice over you.

6th On your walls, Jerusalem, I have set watchmen [who] will not be silent day or night. Oh, you who remind of the Lord! Do not stop, -
7th Do not hold his peace before him, until he restores and until he makes Jerusalem glory on earth.
8 The Lord swore by his right hand and with his strong arm: I will not give your grain more for food to your enemies, and the sons of strangers will not drink your wine, over which you have labored;
9 But those who gather it will eat it and praise the Lord, and those who gather the grapes will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.

10 Come, go through the gate, prepare the way for the people! Rovnyayte, level the road, remove the stones, raise the banner for the people!
eleven Behold, the Lord declares unto the end of the earth, Say ye the daughter of Zion: Thy Savior is coming; His reward with Him and His reward before Him.
12 And they will be called the holy people, redeemed from the Lord, and you will be called a recovered city, unaligned.
