In the hand of the Lord,
And a royal diadem
In the hand of your God.
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.
They shall1 never hold their peace day or night.
You who1 make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
| << Isaiah 62:4 | Isaiah 62:6 >> |
