Isaiah 62:6-12

New International Version - UK

⁶ I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,
⁷ and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise of the earth.

⁸ The Lord has sworn by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
‘Never again will I give your grain
    as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
    for which you have toiled;
⁹ but those who harvest it will eat it
    and praise the Lord,
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
    in the courts of my sanctuary.’

¹⁰ Pass through, pass through the gates!
    Prepare the way for the people.
Build up, build up the highway!
    Remove the stones.
Raise a banner for the nations.

¹¹ The Lord has made proclamation
    to the ends of the earth:
‘Say to Daughter Zion,
    “See, your Saviour comes!
See, his reward is with him,
    and his recompense accompanies him.”’
¹² They will be called the Holy People,
    the Redeemed of the Lord;
and you will be called Sought After,
    the City No Longer Deserted.
