5. For as a young man marries a virgin,your Builder shall marry you;And as a bridegroom rejoices in his brideso shall your God rejoice in you.
6. Upon your walls, Jerusalem,I have stationed sentinels;By day and by night,they shall never be silent.You who are to remind the Lord,take no rest,
7. And give him no rest,until he re-establishes JerusalemAnd makes it the praise of the earth.
8. The Lord has sworn by his right handand by his mighty arm:No more will I give your grainas food to your enemies;Nor shall foreigners drink the wine,for which you toiled.
9. But those who harvest shall eat,and praise the Lord;Those who gather shall drinkin my holy courts.
10. Pass through, pass through the gates,prepare a way for the people;Build up, build up the highway, clear it of stones,raise up a standard over the nations.
11. The Lord has proclaimedto the ends of the earth:Say to daughter Zion,“See, your savior comes!See, his reward is with him,his recompense before him.”
12. They shall be called “The Holy People,”“The Redeemed of the Lord.”And you shall be called “Cared For,”“A City Not Forsaken.”
