1 Isaiah talks: I will not be quiet. I will not stop. I pray for Zion and for Jerusalem. Your good will shine like light. God will save you like a bright fire. ✨ 2 All people and all leaders will see your good. God will give you a new name. ️ 3 You will be like a pretty crown in God’s hand. God holds you with care. ✋ 4 No more “Left Alone.” No more “Empty Land.” Your new name is “My Joy.” Your land is “Married.” God is glad with you. 5 Like a man and a woman marry and are glad, your people will join your land. God is glad with you like a groom with his bride. 6 God puts guards on your walls. They talk to God all day and all night. They do not stop. ️ 7 Keep asking God. Do not stop. Ask God to make the city strong. Ask God to make the world say good things about it. 8 God makes a strong promise. He says, “I will not let bad men take your food. Strangers will not drink what you made.” ✋ 9 You will eat the food you grow. You will say “thank You” to God. You will drink in God’s house. 10 Go! Go through the gates. Make the road ready for the people. Make it smooth. Pick up the rocks. Lift a big sign for all people. ️⬆️ 11 God says to all the world: “Tell Zion, ‘Look! Help comes! He brings a good gift. He pays back with good.’” 12 People will call you “God’s holy people.” They will say, “Saved people.” They will call you “Wanted City,” “City not left alone.” ️️
