Isaiah 62:1-5
New International Version
Zion’s New Name
62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,(A)
for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication(B) shines out like the dawn,(C)
her salvation(D) like a blazing torch.
2 The nations(E) will see your vindication,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name(F)
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown(G) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,(H)
or name your land Desolate.(I)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a](J)
and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight(K) in you,
and your land will be married.(L)
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(M) rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice(N) over you.

Isaiah 62:1-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Zion’s Restoration
62 I will not keep silent because of Zion,
and I will not keep still because of Jerusalem,(A)
until her righteousness shines like a bright light(B)
and her salvation, like a flaming torch.
2 Nations will see your righteousness(C)
and all kings, your glory.
You will be called by a new name
that the Lord’s mouth will announce.(D)
3 You will be a glorious crown in the Lord’s hand,
and a royal diadem in the palm of your God.(E)
4 You will no longer be called Deserted,(F)
and your land will not be called Desolate;
instead, you will be called My Delight is in Her,[a]
and your land Married;[b](G)
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land will be married.
5 For as a young man marries a young woman,
so your sons will marry you;
and as a groom rejoices[c] over his bride,
so your God will rejoice over you.(H)
