54  ^h“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear;

break forth into singing and cry aloud,

you who have not been in labor!

For the children of ⁱthe desolate one ^jwill be more

than the children of her who is married,” says the Lord.

14  But Zion said, ^m“The Lord has forsaken me;

my Lord has forgotten me.”

15  ^dWhereas you have been forsaken and hated,

with no one passing through,

^eI will make you majestic forever,

a joy from age to age.

4  ^tYou shall no more be termed ^uForsaken,¹

and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,²

^rbut you shall be called ^vMy Delight Is in Her,³

and your land Married;⁴

for the Lord delights in you,

and your land shall be married.
