Zion Restored and Glorified

Upon your walls, O Jerusalem,
    I have stationed sentinels.
Neither by day nor by night
    will they be silent.
You whose responsibility is to call upon the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,
and also give no rest to him
    until he restores Jerusalem
    and makes her renowned throughout the earth.
The Lord has sworn by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
Never again will I give your grain
    to serve as food for your enemies,
nor shall foreigners drink the wine
    for which you have toiled.

(A)I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
They shall [a]never hold their peace day or night.
You who [b]make mention of the Lord, do not keep silent,
And give Him no rest till He establishes
And till He makes Jerusalem (B)a praise in the earth.

The Lord has sworn by His right hand
And by the arm of His strength:
“Surely I will no longer (C)give your grain
As food for your enemies;
And the sons of the foreigner shall not drink your new wine,
For which you have labored.
