Isaiah 62:6

Zion's New Identity

⁵ For as a young man marries a young woman,
so your sons will marry you;
and as a groom rejoices over his bride,
so your God will rejoice over you. ⁶ Jerusalem,
I have appointed watchmen on your walls;
they will never be silent, day or night.
There is no rest for you,
who remind the Lord.
⁷ Do not give Him rest
until He establishes and makes Jerusalem
the praise of the earth.
