For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,
for Jerusalem's sake I will not remain quiet,
till her righteousness shines out like the dawn [ until you shimmer],
her salvation like a blazing torch.
The nations will see your righteousness,
and all kings your glory [your beauty];
you will be called by a new name
that the mouth of the LORD will bestow,
You will be a crown of splendor in the LORD's hand [ the crown of creation],
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
No longer will they call you Deserted,
or name your land Desolate.
But you will be called Hephzibah [my delight is in her],
and your land Beulah [married];
for the LORD will take delight in you,
and your land will be married.
As a young man marries a maiden [he pursues her, romances her]...
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride [you are lovely],
so will your God rejoice over you.
(Isaiah 62:1-5)
