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, ‡

7 And give Him no rest till He establishes
And till He makes Jerusalem ^aa praise in the earth. ‡

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. ‡

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.” ‡

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! ‡
