and all kings your glory;

you will be called by a new name

that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.

I will not keep still.

Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem,

I cannot remain silent.

by the Lord’s own mouth.

and you will be called a new name

that the mouth of Yahweh will designate.

For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace,

And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,

Until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness,

And the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth.

And all kings thy glory:

And thou shalt be called by a new name,

Which the mouth of the Lord shall name.
