NETBible

I 1  post watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they should keep praying all day and all night. 2  You who pray to 3  the Lord, don’t be silent!

NET Notes

1 sn The speaker here is probably the prophet.

2 tn Heb “all day and all night continually they do not keep silent.” The following lines suggest that they pray for the Lord’s intervention and restoration of the city.

3 tn Or “invoke”; NIV “call on”; NASB, NRSV “remind.”
