1 For Zion’s sake I will not1 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.
And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,

In the hand of the Lord,
And a royal diadem
In the hand of your God.

In the hand of your God.
4 aYou shall no longer be termed bForsaken,
Nor shall your land any more be termed cDesolate;
But you shall be called1 Hephzibah, and your land Beulah;
For the Lord delights in you,
And your land shall be married.

So shall your sons marry you;
And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
aSo shall your God rejoice over you.

And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
aSo shall your God rejoice over you.
6 aI have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;

They shall1 never hold their peace day or night.
You who1 make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
8 The Lord has sworn by His right hand
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer agive your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.

And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it ain My holy courts.”
And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it ain My holy courts.”

Build up,
Build up the highway!
Take out the stones,
bLift up a banner for the peoples!

To the end of the world:
a“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Surely your salvation is coming;
Behold, His breward is with Him,
And His1 work before Him.’ ”

The Redeemed of the Lord;
And you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
The Redeemed of the Lord;
And you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
