‏ Isaiah 55:12-13

12Indeed you will go out with joy;
you will be led along in peace;
the mountains and hills will give a joyful shout before you,
and all the trees in the field will clap their hands.
13Evergreens 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.”
