Isaiah 62:7 in context

Isaiah 62:4–10

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 the LORD 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 the LORD, take no rest,

7
Selected verse

and give him no rest until he establishes,

and until he makes Jerusalem a praise on the earth.

8

The LORD 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 the LORD.

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.
