Isaiah 21:6

New Living Translation

Meanwhile, the Lord said to me, “Put a watchman on the city wall. Let him shout out what he sees.

See the chapter Copy

He shouted the news down to David, and the king replied, “If he is alone, he has news.” As the messenger came closer,

The watchmen stopped me as they made their rounds, and I asked, “Have you seen the one I love?”

O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen on your walls; they will pray day and night, continually. Take no rest, all you who pray to the Lord.

“Son of man, I have appointed you as a watchman for Israel. Whenever you receive a message from me, warn people immediately.
