I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem.
    They will never be silent day nor night.
You who call on Yahweh, take no rest,
    and give him no rest, until he establishes,
    and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

Yahweh has sworn by his right hand,
    and by the arm of his strength,
“Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies,
    and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored,
but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise Yahweh.
    Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”

Upon your walls, O Jerusalem,
    I have posted sentinels;
all day and all night
    they shall never be silent.
You who remind the Lord,
    take no rest,(A)
and give him no rest
    until he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes it renowned throughout the earth.(B)
The Lord has sworn by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
I will not again give your grain
    to be food for your enemies,
and foreigners shall not drink the wine
    for which you have labored,(C)
but those who harvest it shall eat it
    and praise the Lord,
and those who gather it shall drink it
    in my holy courts.(D)
