Isaiah:62
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For Zion '
s sake I will not hold My peace ,
And for Jerusalem '
s sake I will not rest ,
Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness ,
And her salvation as a lamp that burns .
*
The Gentiles shall see your righteousness ,
And all kings your glory .
You shall be called by a new name ,
Which the mouth of the LORD will name .
*
You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the LORD ,
And a royal diadem In the hand of your God .
*
You shall no longer be termed Forsaken ,
Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate ;
But you shall be called Hephzibah ,
and your land Beulah ;
For the LORD delights in you ,
And your land shall be married .
*
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 .
*
I have set watchmen on your walls ,
O Jerusalem ;
They shall never hold their peace day or night .
You who make mention of the LORD ,
do not keep silent ,
*
And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth .
*
The LORD has sworn by His right hand And by the arm of His strength : "
Surely I will no longer give your grain As food for your enemies ;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine ,
For which you have labored .
*
But those who have gathered it shall eat it ,
And praise the LORD ;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it in My holy courts ."
*
Go through ,
Go through the gates !
Prepare the way for the people ;
Build up ,
Build up the highway !
Take out the stones ,
Lift up a banner for the peoples !
*
Indeed the LORD has proclaimed To the end of the world : "
Say to the daughter of Zion , "
Surely your salvation is coming ;
Behold ,
His reward is with Him ,
And His work before Him ."'
*
And they shall call them The Holy People ,
The Redeemed of the LORD ;
And you shall be called Sought Out ,
A City Not Forsaken .
