(A)The nations shall see your righteousness,
    and all the kings your glory,
(B)and you shall be called by a new name
    that the mouth of the Lord will give.
You shall be (C)a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,
    and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
(D)You shall no more be termed (E)Forsaken,[a]
    and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,[b]
(F)but you shall be called (G)My Delight Is in Her,[c]
    and your land Married;[d]
for the Lord delights in you,
    and your land shall be married.
For as a young man marries a young woman,
    so (H)shall your sons marry you,
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
    so (I)shall your God rejoice over you.

On your walls, O Jerusalem,
    I have set (J)watchmen;
all the day and all the night
    they shall never be silent.
You who put the Lord in remembrance,
    take no rest,
and give him no rest
    until he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes it (K)a praise in the earth.
