² Nations will see your righteousness^(C)
and all kings, your glory.
You will be given a new name
that the Lord’s mouth will announce.^(D)

³ You will be a glorious crown in the Lord’s hand,
and a royal diadem in the palm of your God’s hand.^(E)
4 You will no longer be called Deserted,^(F)
and your land will not be called Desolate;
instead, you will be called My Delight Is in Her,^[a]
and your land Married;^[b](G)
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land will be married.
⁵ For as a young man marries a young woman,
so your sons will marry you;
and as a groom rejoices over his bride,
so your God will rejoice over you.^(H)
6 Jerusalem,
I have appointed watchmen on your walls;^(I)
they will never be silent, day or night.
There is no rest for you,
who remind the Lord.
⁷ Do not give him rest
until he establishes and makes Jerusalem
the praise of the earth.^(J)

⁸ The Lord has sworn with his right hand
and his strong arm:
I will no longer give your grain
to your enemies for food,^(K)
and foreigners will not drink the new wine
for which you have labored.
⁹ For those who gather grain will eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who harvest the grapes will drink the wine
in my holy courts.
¹⁰ Go out, go out through the city gates;
prepare a way for the people!
Build it up, build up the highway;^(L)
clear away the stones!
Raise a banner for the peoples.^(M)
11 Look, the Lord has proclaimed
to the ends of the earth,
“Say to Daughter Zion:^(N)
Look, your salvation is coming,
his wages are with him,^(O)
and his reward accompanies him.”
¹² And they will be called^[c] the Holy People,^(P)
the Lord’s Redeemed;
and you will be called Cared For,
A City Not Deserted.
