⁴ You shall no more be termed Forsaken,
    and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,
but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her
    and your land Married,
for the Lord delights in you,
    and your land shall be married.^(A)

⁹ Their descendants shall be known among the nations
    and their offspring among the peoples;
all who see them shall acknowledge
    that they are a people whom the Lord has blessed.^(A)

⁴⁸ for he has looked with favor on the lowly state of his servant.
    Surely from now on all generations will call me blessed,^(A)

¹⁹ I will deal with all your oppressors
    at that time.
And I will save the lame
    and gather the outcast,
and I will change their shame into praise
    and renown in all the earth.^(A)
20 At that time I will bring you home,
    at the time when I gather you;
for I will make you renowned and praised
    among all the peoples of the earth,
when I restore your fortunes
    before your eyes, says the Lord.^(B)

¹⁷ May his name endure forever,
    his fame continue as long as the sun.
May all nations be blessed in him;^[a]
    may they pronounce him happy.^(A)
