Isaiah 12 is a song of praise for God's salvation. Its language centers on the LORD as the source of salvation rather than functioning by itself as a direct prediction of Jesus' personal name.

The fulfillment passages listed here (Matt 1:21) illuminate the Christian application summarized as "Called Jesus-Yeshua." The correspondence is meaningful within the New Testament portrait of Jesus, but where the New Testament does not explicitly quote this exact Isaiah verse as fulfilled, it is best described as a theological or messianic correspondence rather than claiming more precision than the biblical writers themselves state.
