Jerusalem, the nations will see
    that I have made everything right for you.
    All their kings will see your glory.
You will be called by a new name.
    I myself will give it to you.
You will be like a glorious crown in my strong hand.
    You will be like a royal crown in my powerful hand.
People will not call you Deserted anymore.
    They will no longer name your land Empty.
Instead, you will be called One the Lord Delights In.
    Your land will be named Married One.
That’s because the Lord will take delight in you.
    And your land will be married.

The nations(A) will see your vindication,
    and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name(B)
    that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
You will be a crown(C) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
    a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
No longer will they call you Deserted,(D)
    or name your land Desolate.(E)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a](F)
    and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight(G) in you,
    and your land will be married.(H)
