Isaiah 62:7
Compare all
5 For as a young man marries a virgin,
So shall your sons marry you;
And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
aSo shall your God rejoice over you. 
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.”

Isaiah 62:7

no rest—Hebrew, "silence"; keep not silence yourselves, nor let Him rest in silence. Compare as to Messiah Himself, "I will not hold . . . peace . . . not rest" (Isaiah 62:1); Messiah's watchmen (Isaiah 62:6-7) imitate Him (Isaiah 62:1) in intercessory "prayer without ceasing" for Jerusalem (Psalms 122:6; Psalms 51:18); also for the spiritual Jerusalem, the Church (Luke 18:1, Luke 18:7; Romans 1:9).

a praise—(See on Isaiah 61:11; Zephaniah 3:20).
