Isaiah 62:4-6
Common English Bible
4 You will no longer be called Abandoned,
and your land will no longer be called Deserted.
Instead, you will be called My Delight Is in Her,
and your land, Married.
Because the Lord delights in you,
your land will be cared for once again.
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so your sons will marry you.
With the joy of a bridegroom because of his bride,
so your God will rejoice because of you.
6 Upon your walls, Jerusalem,
I have appointed sentinels.
Continually, all day and all night,
they won’t keep silent.
You who call on the Lord, don’t rest,
Isaiah 62:4-6
New International Version
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,(A)
or name your land Desolate.(B)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a](C)
and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight(D) in you,
and your land will be married.(E)
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(F) rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice(G) over you.
