| 1 | For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burns. | For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch. | 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 | And the Gentiles shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory: and you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name. | The nations shall see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will give. | 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 shall also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. | You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. | You will be a crown of splendor in the LORD’s hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God. | |

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 | For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall your sons marry you: and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you. | For as a young man marries a young woman, so shall your sons marry you, and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you. | 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. | |
| 6 | I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: you that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence, | On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent. You who put the LORD in remembrance, take no rest, | I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves no rest, | |
| 7 | And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. | and give him no rest until he establishes Jerusalem and makes it a praise in the earth. | and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth. | |
| 8 | The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give your corn to be meat for your enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink your wine, for the which you have labored: | The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: “I will not again give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners shall not drink your wine for which you have labored; | The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: “Never again will I give your grain as food for your enemies, and never again will foreigners drink the new wine for which you have toiled; | |
| 9 | But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness. | but those who garner it shall eat it and praise the LORD, and those who gather it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.” | but those who harvest it will eat it and praise the LORD, and those who gather the grapes will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.” | |
| 10 | Go through, go through the gates; prepare you the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people. | Go through, go through the gates; prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway; clear it of stones; lift up a signal over the peoples. | Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare the way for the people. Build up, build up the highway! Remove the stones. Raise a banner for the nations. | |

See, his reward is with him, and his recompense accompanies him.’” | |
