Isaiah 62:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 You will never again be called Abandoned,[a]
and your land will never again be called Desolation,[b]
for you will be called My Delight Is in Her,[c]
and your land will be called Married,[d]
because the Lord delights in you,
and your land will be married.
5 For just as a young man marries a virgin,
your sons will marry[e] you,
and just as a bridegroom rejoices over a bride,
your God will rejoice over you.
6 Upon your walls, Jerusalem, I appointed watchmen.
All day and all night they will never be silent.
You who keep reminding the Lord, do not rest!
