  1. Isaiah 61:10-62:5 New International Version (NIV)

  2. 10 I delight greatly in the LORD;    my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation    and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,    and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. 11 For as the soil makes the sprout come up    and a garden causes seeds to grow, so the Sovereign LORD will make righteousness    and praise spring up before all nations.

  3. 1 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,    for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her vindication shines out like the dawn,    her salvation like a blazing torch. 2 The nations will see your vindication,    and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name    that the mouth of the LORD will bestow. 3 You will be a crown of splendor in the LORD’s hand,    a royal diadem in the hand of your God. 

  4. 4 No longer will they call you Deserted,    or name your land Desolate. But you will be called Hephzibah,   and your land Beulah;for the LORD will take delight in you,    and your land will be married. 5 As a young man marries a young woman,    so will your Builder marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,    so will your God rejoice over you.
