ZION is the COMPLETED ONE
The COMPLETE ISRAEL.
YERU’SHALOM is the HEART of ISRAEL, HIS BRIDE.
HIS PLAN
IS 62:1 For ZION's sake will I not hold MY PEACE, and for YERU’SHALOM's sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the SALVATION thereof as a lamp that burneth.
IS 62:2 And the Gentiles shall see THY RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all kings THY GLORY: and THOU shalt be called by a NEW NAME, which the MOUTH of YH’SHWH shall NAME.
IS 62:3 THOU shalt also be a CROWN of GLORY in the HAND of YH’SHWH, and a ROYAL DIADEM in the HAND of THY GOD.
IS 62:4 THOU shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall THY LAND any more be termed Desolate: but THOU shalt be called HEPHZIBAH, and THY LAND, BEULAH: for YH’SHWH delighteth in THEE, and THY LAND shall be MARRIED.
IS 62:5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall THY SONS marry THEE: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall THY GOD rejoice over THEE.
IS 62:6 I have set WATCHMEN upon THY WALLS, O YERU’SHALOM, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of YH’SHWH, keep not silence,
IS 62:7 And give HIM no rest, till HE establish, and till HE make YERU’SHALOM a PRAISE in the earth.
IS 62:8 YH’SHWH hath sworn by HIS RIGHT HAND, and by the ARM of HIS STRENGTH, Surely I will no more give THY corn to be meat for thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink THY wine, for the which THOU hast laboured:
IS 62:9 But THEY that have gathered it shall eat it, and PRAISE YH’SHWH; and THEY that have brought it together shall drink it in the COURTS of MY HOLINESS.
IS 62:10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the PEOPLE; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a STANDARD for the PEOPLE.
IS 62:11 Behold, YH’SHWH hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say YE to the DAUGHTER of ZION, Behold, THY SALVATION cometh; behold, HIS REWARD is with HIM, and HIS WORK before HIM.
IS 62:12 And they shall call THEM, The HOLY PEOPLE, The REDEEMED of YH’SHWH: and THOU shalt be called, SOUGHT OUT, A CITY not forsaken.

HIS SALVATION
IS 63:1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is GLORIOUS in HIS APARREL, traveling in the greatness of HIS STRENGTH? I that SPEAK in RIGHTEOUSNESS, MIGHTY to SAVE.
IS 63:2 Wherefore art THOU red in THINE APARREL, and THY GARMENTS like him that treadeth in the winefat?
IS 63:3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with ME: for I will tread them in MINE ANGER, and trample them in MY FURY; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon MY GARMENTS, and I will stain all MY RAINMENT.
IS 63:4 For the day of vengeance is in MINE HEART, and the year of MY REDEEMED is come.
IS 63:5 And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore MINE OWN ARM brought SALVATION unto ME; and MY FURY, it upheld ME.
IS 63:6 And I will tread down the people in MINE ANGER, and make them drunk in MY FURY, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
IS 63:7 I will mention the LOVINGKINDNESS of YH’SHWH, and the PRAISES of YH’SHWH, according to all that YH’SHWH hath bestowed on us, and the GREAT GOODNESS toward the HOUSE of ISRAEL, which HE hath bestowed on THEM according to HIS MERCIES, and according to the multitude of HIS LOVINGKINDNESS.
IS 63:8 For HE said, Surely they are MY PEOPLE, CHILDREN that will not lie: so HE was their SAVIOUR.
IS 63:9 In all their affliction HE was afflicted, and the MESSENGER of HIS PRESENCE SAVED THEM: in HIS LOVE and in HIS PITY HE REDEEMED THEM; and HE BARE THEM, and CARRIED THEM all the days of old.
IS 63:10 But they rebelled, and vexed HIS HOLY SPIRIT: therefore HE was turned to be THEIR ENEMY, and HE fought against them.
______________
HIS PLAN with US, NOW
IS 63:11 Then HE remembered the days of old, MOSHE, and HIS PEOPLE, saying, Where is HE that brought them up out of the sea with the SHEPHERD of HIS FLOCK? where is HE that put HIS HOLY SPIRIT within THEM?
IS 63:12 That led THEM by the right hand of MOSHE with HIS GLORIOUS ARM, dividing the water before THEM, to make HIMSELF an EVERLASTING NAME?
IS 63:13 That led THEM through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that THEY should not stumble?
IS 63:14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the SPIRIT of YH’SHWH caused THEM to rest: so didst THOU lead THY PEOPLE, to make THYSELF a GLORIOUS NAME.
IS 63:15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of THY HOLINESS and of THY GLORY: where is THY ZEAL and THY STRENGTH, the sounding of THY BOWELS and of THY MERCIES toward ME? are they restrained?
IS 63:16 Doubtless THOU art ABBA, though Abraham be ignorant of US, and ISRAEL acknowledge US not: thou, O YH’SHWH, art ABBA, our REDEEMER; THY NAME is from EVERLASTING.
_______________
OUR CRIES to HIM
IS 63:17 O YH’SHWH, why hast THOU made us to err from THY WAYS, and hardened our heart from THY FEAR? Return for THY SERVANTS' sake, the TRIBES of THINE INHERITANCE.
IS 63:18 The PEOPLE of THY HOLINESS have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down THY SANCTUARY.
IS 63:19 WE are THINE: THOU never barest rule over them; they were not called by THY NAME.
IS 64:1 Oh that THOU wouldest rend the heavens, that THOU wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at THY PRESENCE,
IS 64:2 As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make THY NAME known to THINE adversaries, that the nations may tremble at THY PRESENCE!
_________________
HE COMES
IS 64:3 When THOU didst terrible things which we looked not for, THOU camest down, the mountains flowed down at THY PRESENCE.
IS 64:4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O GOD, beside THEE, what HE hath prepared for him that waiteth for HIM.
IS 64:5 THOU meetest HIM that rejoiceth and worketh RIGHTEOUSNESS, those that remember THEE in THY WAYS: behold, THOU art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and WE shall be SAVED.
IS 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
IS 64:7 And there is none that calleth upon THY NAME, that stirreth up himself to take hold of THEE: for THOU hast hid THY FACE from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
IS 64:8 But now, O YH’SHWH, THOU art ABBA; WE are the clay, and THOU our POTTER; and WE all are the WORK of THY HAND.
IS 64:9 Be not wroth very sore, O YH’SHWH, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, WE beseech THEE, WE are all THY PEOPLE.
IS 64:10 THY HOLY CITIES are a wilderness, ZION is a wilderness, YERU’SHALOM a desolation.
IS 64:11 Our HOLY and our BEAUTIFUL HOUSE, where our fathers PRAISED THEE, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
IS 64:12 Wilt THOU refrain THYSELF for these things, O YH’SHWH? wilt thou hold THY PEACE, and afflict us very sore?

The LOST SEEK HIM
IS 65:1 I AM sought of THEM that asked not for ME; I AM found of THEM that sought ME not: I said, Behold ME, behold ME, unto a nation that was not called by MY NAME.
________________
All, who are "in sin" (against HIM), do not accept HIM
IS 65:2 I have spread out MY HANDS all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
IS 65:3 A people that provoketh ME to anger continually to MY FACE; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;
IS 65:4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
IS 65:5 Which say, “Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou.” These are a smoke in MY NOSE, a fire that burneth all the day.
IS 65:6 Behold, it is written before ME: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
IS 65:7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith YH’SHWH, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed ME upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.

In HIS MERCY and GRACE, HE SAVES US
IS 65:8 Thus saith YH’SHWH, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for MY SERVANTS' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
IS 65:9 And I will bring forth a SEED out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of MY MOUNTAINS: and MINE ELECT shall inherit it, and MY SERVANTS shall dwell there.
