Isaiah 62:6–12

6  I have set owatchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem,

Which shall never hold their peace day nor night:

||qYe that make mention of the Lord,

Keep not silence, 7 And give him no †rest,

Till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem ra praise in the earth.

8  The Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength,

†Surely sI will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies;

And tthe sons of the stranger ttshall not drink thy uwine, for the which thou hast laboured:

9  But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and vpraise the Lord;

And they that have brought it together shall drink it vin the courts of my holiness.

10  Go through, go through the gates; wxprepare ye the way of the people;

xCast up, cast up the highway; ygather out the stones;

zLift up a standard for the people.

11  Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world,

aSay ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, bthy salvation cometh;

cBehold, his reward is with him,

cAnd his ||work before him.

12  And dthey shall call them, eThe holy people, fThe redeemed of the Lord:

And thou shalt be called, Sought out, gA city not forsaken.
