⁶ I have posted watchmen^(A) on your walls, Jerusalem;
    they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
    give yourselves no rest,^(B)
7 and give him no rest^(C) till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise^(D) of the earth.

⁸ The Lord has sworn^(E) by his right hand
    and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain^(F)
    as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
    for which you have toiled;
