How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land? If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my righthand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, yea, if I prefer not Jerusalem in my mirth.

Then shall the Gentiles see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory. Thou shalt be named with a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall show.

Upon the walls of Jerusalem, I have set keepers which shall never cease, neither by day nor yet by night. And ye that stir up the remembrance of the Lord, see that ye pause not, neither let him have rest until he have prepared and made Jerusalem glorious in the earth.
