Isaiah 62:10-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
10 Go through, go through the gates;
prepare the way for the people;
build up, build up the highway;
clear it of stones;
lift up an ensign over the peoples.(A)
11 The Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
Say to daughter Zion,
“Look, your savior comes;
his reward is with him
and his recompense before him.”(B)
12 They shall be called, “The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord,”
and you shall be called, “Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.”(C)
Isaiah 62:10-12
International Standard Version
The Coming of God to Reign
10 “Pass through[a] the gates!
prepare the way for the people!
Build up! Build up the highway!
Clear it of stumbling stones,[b]
speak among the peoples.[c]
11 Here is the Lord!
Proclaim[d] to the ends[e] of the earth,
say to the inhabitants[f] of Zion:
‘See, your salvation is coming!
See, his reward is with him,
and his recompenses are[g] before him.’
12 People will call them, ‘The Holy People,’
‘The Redeemed of the Lord’;
and they will call you,[h] ‘Sought After,’
‘The City Not Deserted.’”
