Yesaya 52:1

52:1 Wake up! Wake up!

Clothe yourself with strength, O Zion!

Put on your beautiful clothes,

O Jerusalem, ¹  holy city!

For uncircumcised and unclean pagans

will no longer invade you.

Yesaya 61:10

61:10 I ²  will greatly rejoice ³  in the Lord;

I will be overjoyed because of my God. ⁴ 

For he clothes me in garments of deliverance;

he puts on me a robe symbolizing vindication. ⁵ 

I look like a bridegroom when he wears a turban as a priest would;

I look like a bride when she puts on her jewelry. ⁶ 

Yeremia 2:32

2:32 Does a young woman forget to put on her jewels?

Does a bride forget to put on her bridal attire?

But my people have forgotten me

for more days than can even be counted.
