For as a young man marries a virgin,
    your Builder shall marry you;
And as a bridegroom rejoices in his bride
    so shall your God rejoice in you.
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,
And give him no rest,
    until he re-establishes Jerusalem
And makes it the praise of the earth.

    so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(A) rejoices over his bride,
    so will your God rejoice(B) over you.

I have posted watchmen(C) on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,(D)
and give him no rest(E) till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise(F) of the earth.
