‏ Isaiah 55:13

13 Evergreens will grow in place of thornbushes;
firs will grow in place of nettles;
they will be a monument to the Lord, ^{▼▼tn Heb “to the Lord for a name.” For שֵׁם (shem) used in the sense of “monument,” see also 56:5, where it stands parallel to יָד (yad).}
a permanent reminder that will remain. ^{▼▼tn Or, more literally, “a permanent sign that will not be cut off.”}
