“Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring again Zion.”
The response of Zion—'Listen! Your sentinels lift up their voices, together they sing for joy; for in plain sight they see the return of Yahweh to Zion'—depicts Jerusalem's joy at God's homecoming. The image of sentinels singing suggests watchmen welcoming God's return. The phrase 'in plain sight they see' emphasizes that restoration will be publicly visible. This verse celebrates the emotional and relational restoration accompanying political return.
