Isaiah 62 New International Version (NIV)

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.
²The 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.
³You will be a crown^(G) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
    a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
⁴No 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)
⁵As 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.

⁶I have posted watchmen^(O) on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,^(P)
⁷and give him no rest^(Q) till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise^(R) of the earth.

⁸The Lord has sworn^(S) by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain^(T)
    as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
    for which you have toiled;
⁹but those who harvest it will eat^(U) it
    and praise the Lord,^(V)
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
    in the courts of my sanctuary.”^(W)

¹⁰Pass through, pass through the gates!^(X)
Prepare the way for the people.
Build up, build up the highway!^(Y)
Remove the stones.
Raise a banner^(Z) for the nations.

¹¹The Lord has made proclamation
    to the ends of the earth:^(AA)
“Say to Daughter Zion,^(AB)
    ‘See, your Savior comes!^(AC)
See, his reward is with him,
    and his recompense accompanies him.’”^(AD)
¹²They will be called^(AE) the Holy People,^(AF)
    the Redeemed^(AG) of the Lord;
and you will be called Sought After,
    the City No Longer Deserted.^(AH)
