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]

6 Jerusalem,
I have appointed watchmen on your walls;(A)
they will never be silent, day or night.
There is no rest for you,
who remind the Lord.
7 Do not give Him rest
until He establishes and makes Jerusalem
the praise of the earth.(B)
8 The Lord has sworn with His right hand
and His strong arm:
I will no longer give your grain
to your enemies for food,(C)
and foreigners will not drink your new wine
you have labored for.
9 For those who gather grain will eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who harvest the grapes will drink the wine
in My holy courts.
