Isaiah 62:5-7
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 62:5-7
Contemporary English Version
5 Your people will take the land,[a]
just as a young man
takes a bride.
The Lord will be pleased
because of you,
just as a husband is pleased
with his bride.
6 Jerusalem, on your walls
I have stationed guards,
whose duty it is
to speak out day and night,
without resting.
They must remind the Lord
7 and not let him rest
till he makes Jerusalem strong
and famous everywhere.
