1  ^oFor Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,

and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not be quiet,

^puntil her righteousness goes forth as brightness,

and her salvation as a burning torch.

6  On your walls, O Jerusalem,

I have set ^ywatchmen;

all the day and all the night

they shall never be silent.

You who put the Lord in remembrance,

take no rest,

7  and give him no rest

until he establishes Jerusalem

and makes it ^za praise in the earth.
