Strongs On/Off
Context
62:7 Don’t allow him to rest until he reestablishes Jerusalem, until he makes Jerusalem the pride of the earth .
62:8 The Lord swears an oath by his right hand , by his strong arm : “I will never again give your grain to your enemies as food , and foreigners will not drink your wine , which you worked hard to produce.
62:9 But those who harvest the grain will eat it, and will praise the Lord . Those who pick the grapes will drink the wine in the courts of my holy sanctuary .”
62:10 Come through ! Come through the gates ! Prepare the way for the people ! Build it! Build the roadway ! Remove the stones ! Lift a signal flag for the nations !
62:11 Look , the Lord announces to the entire earth : “Say to Daughter Zion , ‘Look , your deliverer comes ! Look , his reward is with him and his reward goes before him!’”
62:12 They will be called , “The Holy People , the Ones Protected by the Lord .” You will be called , “Sought After, City Not Abandoned .”
