Isaiah 62

YHWH vows not to rest until Zion's righteousness shines like brightness and her salvation like a burning lamp, visible to the nations, earning her a new name as a crown of glory in God's hand.[1][2][4] Zion will be renamed Hephzibah ('My delight is in her') and her land Beulah ('married'), with YHWH rejoicing over her as a bridegroom; He swears enemies will no longer plunder her produce, calls sentinels to pray unceasingly, and commands preparation of the highway for her salvation's arrival.[1][3][4]
