1 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,

and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,

until her vindication goes forth as brightness,

and her salvation as a burning torch.

2 The nations shall see your vindication,

and all the kings your glory;

and you shall be called by a new name

which the mouth of the Lord will give.

3 You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,

and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.

4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken,s

and your land shall no more be termed Desolate;t

but you shall be called My delight is in her,u

and your land Married;*

for the Lord delights in you,

and your land shall be married.

5 For as a young man marries a virgin,

so shall your sons marry you,

and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,

so shall your God rejoice over you.
