Isaiah

Isaiah 62:3–4

3You will be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD,

a royal diadem in the palm of your God.

4No longer will you be called Forsaken,a

nor your land named Desolate;b

but you will be called Hephzibah,c

and your land Beulah;d

for the LORD will take delight in you,

and your land will be His bride.
