Isaiah’s Prayer for Jerusalem
62 Because I love Zion,
I will not keep still.
Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem,
I cannot remain silent.
I will not stop praying for her
until her righteousness shines like the dawn,
and her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
2 The nations will see your righteousness.
World leaders will be blinded by your glory.
And you will be given a new name
by the Lord’s own mouth.

21 Consult together, argue your case.
Get together and decide what to say.
Who made these things known so long ago?
What idol ever told you they would happen?
Was it not I, the Lord?
For there is no other God but me,
a righteous God and Savior.
There is none but me.
22 Let all the world look to me for salvation!
For I am God; there is no other.
23 I have sworn by my own name;
I have spoken the truth,
and I will never go back on my word:
Every knee will bend to me,
and every tongue will declare allegiance to me.[a]”
24 The people will declare,
“The Lord is the source of all my righteousness and strength.”
And all who were angry with him
will come to him and be ashamed.
25 In the Lord all the generations of Israel will be justified,
and in him they will boast.

who declared it from the distant past?(B)
Was it not I, the Lord?
And there is no God apart from me,(C)
a righteous God(D) and a Savior;(E)
there is none but me.
22 “Turn(F) to me and be saved,(G)
all you ends of the earth;(H)
for I am God, and there is no other.(I)
23 By myself I have sworn,(J)
my mouth has uttered in all integrity(K)
a word that will not be revoked:(L)
Before me every knee will bow;(M)
by me every tongue will swear.(N)
24 They will say of me, ‘In the Lord alone
are deliverance(O) and strength.(P)’”
All who have raged against him
will come to him and be put to shame.(Q)
25 But all the descendants(R) of Israel
will find deliverance(S) in the Lord
and will make their boast in him.(T)
