Isaiah 62:1-5
Expanded Bible
New Jerusalem
62 ·Because I love Jerusalem [L For Zion’s sake], I will ·continue to speak for her [not be silent];
for Jerusalem’s sake I will not ·stop speaking [be silent]
until her ·goodness [vindication; righteousness] shines like ·a bright light [brightness],
until her salvation burns bright like a ·flame [torch].
2 Jerusalem, the nations will see your ·goodness [righteousness; vindication],
and all kings will see your glory.
Then you will ·have [L be called by] a new name,
which the [L mouth of the] Lord himself will ·give you [name].
3 You will be like a ·beautiful crown [crown of majesty/glory] in the Lord’s hand,
like a ·king’s crown [royal diadem] in your God’s hand.
4 You will never again be called ·the People that God Left [L Abandoned; Deserted],
nor your land ·the Land that God Destroyed [Desolate].
You will be called ·the People God Loves [L My Delight Is In Her; T Hephzibah; C a proper name],
and your land will be called ·the Bride of God [L Married; T Beulah; C a proper name],
because the Lord ·loves you [takes delight in you].
And your land will ·belong to him as a bride belongs to her husband [be married].
5 As a young man marries a ·woman [young woman; virgin],
so your ·children [or builder] will marry ·your land [L you].
As a ·man [L bridegroom] rejoices over ·his new wife [the bride],
so your God will rejoice over you.
Isaiah 62:1-5
New American Standard Bible
Zion’s Glory and New Name
62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,
And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet,
Until her (A)righteousness goes forth like brightness,
And her (B)salvation like a torch that is burning.
2 The (C)nations will see your righteousness,
And all kings your glory;
And you will be called by a new (D)name
Which the mouth of the Lord will designate.
3 You will also be a (E)crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,
And a royal headband in the hand of your God.
4 It will no longer be said to you, “[a](F)Forsaken,”
Nor to your land will it any longer be said, “[b]Desolate”;
But you will be called, “[c]My delight is in her,”
And your land, “[d](G)Married”;
For the (H)Lord delights in you,
And to Him your land will be married.
5 For as a young man marries a virgin,
So your sons will marry you;
And as the [e]groom rejoices over the bride,
So your (I)God will rejoice over you.
