Isaiah 62:1-5

New International Version

Zion’s New Name

62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,^(A)
    for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication^(B) shines out like the dawn,^(C)
    her salvation^(D) like a blazing torch.
²The nations^(E) will see your vindication,
    and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name^(F)
    that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
³You will be a crown^(G) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
    a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
⁴No longer will they call you Deserted,^(H)
    or name your land Desolate.^(I)
But you will be called Hephzibah,^[a]^(J)
    and your land Beulah^[b];
for the Lord will take delight^(K) in you,
    and your land will be married.^(L)
⁵As a young man marries a young woman,
    so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom^(M) rejoices over his bride,
    so will your God rejoice^(N) over you.
