And the nations shall see your righteousness,
    and all the kings your glory,
and you will be called[a] a new name
    that the mouth of Yahweh will designate.
And you shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of Yahweh,
    and a headband of royalty in the hand of your God.
It shall no longer be said of you, “Forsaken,”
    and it shall no longer be said of your land, “Desolation!”
but you will[b] be called “My Delight Is In Her,”
    and your land, “Married,”
for Yahweh delights in you,
    and your land shall be married.
