Isaiah 62:6-12

English Standard Version

⁶On your walls, O Jerusalem,
    I have set ^(A)watchmen;
all the day and all the night
    they shall never be silent.
You who put the Lord in remembrance,
    take no rest,
⁷and give him no rest
    until he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes it ^(B)a praise in the earth.
⁸The Lord has sworn ^(C)by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
“I will not again give ^(D)your grain
    to be food for your enemies,
^(E)and foreigners shall not drink your wine
    for which you have labored;
⁹but ^(F)those who garner it shall eat it
    and praise the Lord,
and ^(G)those who gather it shall drink it
    in the courts of my sanctuary.”^[a]

¹⁰Go through, go through the gates;
    ^(H)prepare the way for the people;
^(I)build up, build up the highway;
    clear it of stones;
    ^(J)lift up a signal over the peoples.
¹¹Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
    to the end of the earth:
^(K)Say to the daughter of Zion,
    ^(L)“Behold, your salvation comes;
behold, his reward is with him,
    and his recompense before him.”
¹²^(M)And they shall be called The Holy People,
    The Redeemed of the Lord;
^(N)and you shall be called Sought Out,
    A City Not Forsaken.
