For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.

The verse 2 is found in chapter 48 of Isaiah. Israel knows Yahweh’s name but has been stubborn. God announces new things to demonstrate that he controls history and does not share his glory with idols. Deliverance from Babylon again appears as an opportunity to listen and obey, while the chapter ends by stating that the wicked have no true peace.

Sie nennen sich aus der heiligen Stadt und trotzen auf den Gott Israels, der da heißt der HERR Zebaoth.
Porque de la santa ciudad se nombran, y en el Dios de Israel confían: su nombre, Jehová de los ejércitos.
Porque se llaman de la ciudad santa y se apoyan en el Dios de Israel; Jehová de los ejércitos es su nombre.
Car ils prennent leur nom de la ville sainte, Et ils s'appuient sur le Dieu d'Israël, Dont le nom est l'Eternel des armées.
Perciocchè essi si nominano della città santa, si appoggiano sopra l’Iddio d’Israele, il cui Nome è: Il Signor degli eserciti.
E até da santa cidade tomam o nome e se firmam sobre o Deus de Israel; o SENHOR dos Exércitos é o seu nome.
