Yeshayahu 61:10-62:9 ישעיהו ס״א:י׳-ס״ב:ט׳

I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation, he has covered me with the robe of righteous­ness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns her­self with her jewels.

For as the earth brings forth her growth, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

For the sake of Żiyyon I will not hold my peace, and for the sake of Yeru­shalayim, I will not be still, until her righteousness goes forth like radiance, and her salvation like a burning torch.

And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall express.

Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.

Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Ḥefżi-va (My Delight is in Her,) and thy land Be῾ula (Espoused:) for the Lord delights in thee, and thy land shall be espoused.

For as a young man takes to himself a virgin, so shall thy sons take thee to themselves, and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.

I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Yerushalayim, who shall never hold their peace day or night: you that make mention of the Lord, take no rest,

and give him no rest till he establishes, and till he makes Yerushalayim a praise in the earth.

The Lord has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn to be food for thy enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine for which thou hast laboured:

but they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the Lord; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.
