Isaiah 62:10-12

Zion's Coming Salvation

10 Go through, go through the gates;
e prepare the way for the people;
f build up, build up the highway;
clear it of stones;
g lift up a signal over the peoples.
11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
h Say to the daughter of Zion,
i "Behold, your salvation comes;
behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him."
12 j And they shall be called The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
k and you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
