Isaiah 61:10-62:9
English Standard Version
Isaiah 61:10-62:9
English Standard Version
10 (A)I will greatly rejoice in the Lord;
my soul shall exult in my God,
(B)for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom decks himself (C)like a priest with a beautiful headdress,
(D)and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,
and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,
so the Lord God will cause (E)righteousness and praise
to sprout up before all the nations.
Zion's Coming Salvation
62 (F)For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,
and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be quiet,
(G)until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
and her salvation as a burning torch.
2 (H)The nations shall see your righteousness,
and all the kings your glory,
(I)and you shall be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will give.
3 You shall be (J)a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,
and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 (K)You shall no more be termed (L)Forsaken,[a]
and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,[b]
(M)but you shall be called (N)My Delight Is in Her,[c]
and your land Married;[d]
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land shall be married.
5 For as a young man marries a young woman,
so (O)shall your sons marry you,
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so (P)shall your God rejoice over you.
6 On your walls, O Jerusalem,
I have set (Q)watchmen;
all the day and all the night
they shall never be silent.
You who put the Lord in remembrance,
take no rest,
7 and give him no rest
until he establishes Jerusalem
and makes it (R)a praise in the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn (S)by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
“I will not again give (T)your grain
to be food for your enemies,
(U)and foreigners shall not drink your wine
for which you have labored;
9 but (V)those who garner it shall eat it
and praise the Lord,
and (W)those who gather it shall drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.”[e]

Isaiah 61:10-62:9
New International Version
Isaiah 61:10-62:9
New International Version
10 I delight greatly in the Lord;
my soul rejoices(A) in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,(B)
as a bridegroom adorns his head(C) like a priest,
and as a bride(D) adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the soil makes the sprout come up
and a garden(E) causes seeds to grow,
so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness(F)
and praise spring up before all nations.
Zion’s New Name
62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,(G)
for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication(H) shines out like the dawn,(I)
her salvation(J) like a blazing torch.
2 The nations(K) will see your vindication,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name(L)
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown(M) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,(N)
or name your land Desolate.(O)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a](P)
and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight(Q) in you,
and your land will be married.(R)
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(S) rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice(T) over you.
6 I have posted watchmen(U) on your walls, Jerusalem;
they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
give yourselves no rest,(V)
7 and give him no rest(W) till he establishes Jerusalem
and makes her the praise(X) of the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn(Y) by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain(Z)
as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
for which you have toiled;
9 but those who harvest it will eat(AA) it
and praise the Lord,(AB)
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.”(AC)
