World English Bible Classic
[1] For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace,
and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
until her righteousness shines out like the dawn,
and her salvation like a burning lamp.
[2] The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory.
You will be called by a new name,
which Yahweh’s mouth will name.
[3] You will also be a crown of beauty in Yahweh’s hand,
and a royal diadem in your God’s hand.
[4] You will not be called Forsaken any more,
nor will your land be called Desolate any more;
but you will be called Hephzibah,ⓘ
and your land Beulah;ⓘ
for Yahweh delights in you,
and your land will be married.
[5] For as a young man marries a virgin,
so your sons will marry you.
As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,
so your God will rejoice over you. [6] I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem.
They will never be silent day nor night.
You who call on Yahweh, take no rest,
[7] and give him no rest until he establishes,
and until he makes Jerusalem a praise on the earth. [8] Yahweh has sworn by his right hand,
and by the arm of his strength,
“Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies,
and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored,
[9] but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise Yahweh.
Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.” [10] Go through, go through the gates!
Prepare the way of the people!
Build up, build up the highway!
Gather out the stones!
Lift up a banner for the peoples.
[11] Behold, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth:
“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Behold, your salvation comes!
Behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him!’”
[12] They will call them “The Holy People,
Yahweh’s Redeemed”.
You will be called “Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken”.
and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest,
until her righteousness shines out like the dawn,
and her salvation like a burning lamp.
[2] The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory.
You will be called by a new name,
which Yahweh’s mouth will name.
[3] You will also be a crown of beauty in Yahweh’s hand,
and a royal diadem in your God’s hand.
[4] You will not be called Forsaken any more,

King James Version
[1] For Zion’s H6726 sake will I not hold my peace, H2814 and for Jerusalem’s H3389 sake I will not rest, H8252 until H5704 the righteousness H6664 thereof go forth H3318 as brightness, H5051 and the salvation H3444 thereof as a lamp H3940 that burneth. H1197 [2] And the Gentiles H1471 shall see H7200 thy righteousness, H6664 and all kings H4428 thy glory: H3519 and thou shalt be called H7121 by a new H2319 name, H5344 which H834 the mouth H6310 of the Lord H3068 shall name. H8034 [3] Thou shalt also be a crown H5850 of glory H8597 in the hand H3027 of the Lord, H3068 and a royal H4410 diadem H6797 H6797 in the hand H3709 of thy God. H430 [4] Thou shalt no more be termed H559 Forsaken; H5800 neither shall thy land H776 any more be termed H559 Desolate: H8077 but thou shalt be called H7121 Hephzibah, H2657ⓘ and thy land H776 Beulah: H1166ⓘ for H3588 the Lord H3068 delighteth H2654 in thee, and thy land H776 shall be married. H1166 [5] For as a young man H970 marrieth H1166 a virgin, H1330 so shall thy sons H1121 marry H1166 thee: and as the bridegroom H2860 rejoiceth H4885§ over H5921 the bride, H3618 so shall thy God H430 rejoice H7797 over thee. [6] I have set H6485 watchmen H8104 upon H5921 thy walls, H2346 O Jerusalem, H3389 which shall never H8548 hold their peace H2814 day H3117 nor night: H3915 ye that make mention H2142 H853 of the Lord, H3068§ keep not silence, H1824 [7] and give H5414 him no rest, H1824§ till H5704 he establish, H3559 and till he make H7760 H853 Jerusalem H3389 a praise H8416 in the earth. H776 [8] The Lord H3068 hath sworn H7650 by his right hand, H3225 and by the arm H2220 of his strength, H5797 Surely I will H518 no more give H5414 H853 thy corn H1715 to be meat H3978 for thine enemies; H341 and the sons H1121 of the stranger H5236 shall not drink H8354 thy wine, H8492 for the which thou hast laboured: H3021 [9] but they that have gathered H622 it shall eat H398 it, and praise H1984 H853 the Lord; H3068 and they that have brought it together H6908 shall drink H8354 it in the courts H2691 of my holiness. H6944 [10] Go through, H5674 go through H5674 the gates; H8179 prepare H6437 ye the way H1870 of the people; H5971 cast up, H5549 cast up H5549 the highway; H4546 gather out H5619 the stones; H68 lift up H7311 a standard H5251 for the people. H5971 [11] Behold, the Lord H3068 hath proclaimed H8085 unto H413 the end H7097 of the world, H776 Say H559 ye to the daughter H1323 of Zion, H6726 Behold, thy salvation H3468 cometh; H935 behold, his reward H7939 is with him, and his work H6468§ before H6440 him. [12] And they shall call H7121 them, The holy H6944 people, H5971 The redeemed H1350 of the Lord: H3068 and thou shalt be called, H7121 Sought out, H1875 A city H5892 not H3808 forsaken. H5800
