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^(A) till he establishes Jerusalem
    and makes her the praise^(B) of the earth.

¹³ You will arise^(A) and have compassion^(B) on Zion,
    for it is time^(C) to show favor^(D) to her;
    the appointed time^(E) has come.
¹⁴ For her stones are dear to your servants;
    her very dust moves them to pity.
¹⁵ The nations will fear^(F) the name of the Lord,
    all the kings^(G) of the earth will revere your glory.
¹⁶ For the Lord will rebuild Zion^(H)
    and appear in his glory.^(I)
17 He will respond to the prayer^(J) of the destitute;
    he will not despise their plea.
