6 aI have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
They shall1 never hold their peace day or night.
You who1 make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
They shall1 never hold their peace day or night.
You who1 make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
8 The Lord has sworn by His right hand
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer agive your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer agive your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.
9 But those who have gathered it shall eat it,
And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it ain My holy courts.”
And praise the Lord;
Those who have brought it together shall drink it ain My holy courts.”
10 Go through,
Go through the gates!
aPrepare the way for the people;
Build up,
Build up the highway!
Take out the stones,
bLift up a banner for the peoples!
Go through the gates!
aPrepare the way for the people;
Build up,
Build up the highway!
Take out the stones,
bLift up a banner for the peoples!

To the end of the world:
a“Say to the daughter of Zion,
‘Surely your salvation is coming;
Behold, His breward is with Him,
And His1 work before Him.’ ”
