Isaiah 62:6-9
Legacy Standard Bible
6 On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed (A)watchmen;
All day and all night they will never keep silent.
You who (B)remind Yahweh, take no rest for yourselves;
7 And (C)give Him no rest until He establishes
And sets (D)Jerusalem as a praise in the earth.
8 (E)Yahweh has sworn by His right hand and by His strong arm,
“I will (F)never again give your grain as food for your enemies;
Nor will [a]foreigners drink your new wine for which you have labored.”
9 But those who (G)collect it will eat it and praise Yahweh;
And those who gather it will drink it in the courts of My sanctuary.

Isaiah 62:6-9
Lexham English Bible
6 I have appointed watchmen upon your walls, Jerusalem;
all day and all night they shall never be silent.
You who profess Yahweh have no rest.
7 And you must not give him rest until he establishes,
and until he makes[a] Jerusalem an object of praise[b] in the earth.
8 Yahweh has sworn by his right hand,
and by his mighty arm,[c]
“Surely I will never again give your grain as food to your enemies,[d]
and surely foreigners[e] shall not drink your new wine at which you have labored.”
9 But those who gather it shall eat it, and they shall praise Yahweh,
and those who gather it shall drink it in my holy courts.[f]
