Isaie 62

¹For Sion I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem, I will not rest, till her just one come forth as brightness, & her Saviour be kindled as a lamp.

²And the Gentiles shall see thy just one, and all kings thy noble one: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of our Lord shall name.

³And thou shalt be a crown of glory in the hand of our Lord, & the diadem of a kingdom in the hand of thy God.

⁴Thou shalt no more be called, Forsaken: & thy land shall no more be called, Desolate: But thou shalt be called, My will in her, and thy land inhabited, because it hath well pleased our Lord in thee: & thy land shall be inhabited.

⁵For the young man shall dwell with the virgin, and thy children shall dwell in thee. And the bridegroom shall rejoice upon the bride, & thy God shall rejoice upon thee.

⁶Upon thy walls, Jerusalem, I have appointed watch-men, all the day, and all the night, for ever they shall not hold their peace. You that remember our Lord, hold not your peace,

⁷& give not silence to him, until he establish, and until he make Jerusalem the praise in the earth.

⁸Our Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength: If I shall give thy wheat any more to be meat for thine enemies: and if the strange children shall drink thy wine, wherein thou hast laboured.

⁹Because they that shall gather it together, shall eat it, and shall praise the Lord: and they that carry it together, shall drink it in my holy courts.

¹⁰Pass ye, pass ye through the gates, prepare a way for the people, make the journey plain, & pick up the stones, & lift up the sign to the peoples.

¹¹Behold our Lord hath made heard in the ends of the earth, tell the daughter of Sion: Behold thy Saviour cometh: behold his reward is with him, and his work before him.

¹²And they shall call them, The holy people, the redeemed of our Lord. But thou shalt be called, A city sought for, and not Forsaken.
