ישעיה סבIsaiah 62
For the sake of Zion I will not be silent,For the sake of Jerusalem I will not be still,Till her victory emerge resplendentAnd her triumph like a flaming torch.
Nations shall see your victory,And every king your majesty;And you shall be called by a new nameThat GOD shall bestow.
You shall be a glorious crownIn the hand of GOD,And a royal diademIn the palm of your God.
Nevermore shall you be called “Forsaken,”Nor shall your land be called “Desolate”;But you shall be called “I delight in her,”And your land “Espoused.”For GOD takes delight in you,And your land shall be espoused.
As a youth espouses a maiden,Your sons shall espouse you;And as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,So will your God rejoice over you.
Upon your walls, O Jerusalem,I have set sentries,Who shall never be silentBy day or by night.O you, the ETERNAL One’s remembrancers, Take no rest
And give no rest to [God],Until Jerusalem is establishedAnd she is made renowned on earth.
GOD has sworn with the right hand,With a mighty arm:Nevermore will I give your new grainTo your enemies for food,Nor shall foreigners drink the new wineFor which you have labored.
But those who harvest it shall eat itAnd give praise to GOD;And those who gather it shall drink itIn My sacred courts.
Pass through, pass through the gates!Clear the road for the people;Build up, build up the highway,Remove the rocks!Raise an ensign over the peoples!
See, GOD has proclaimedTo the end of the earth:Announce to Fair Zion,Your Deliverer is coming!See, [God] has brought along the reward,The recompense is in view.
And they shall be called, “The Holy People,GOD’s Redeemed,”And you shall be called, “Sought Out,A City Not Forsaken.”
