Isaiah 60:1-14

CLV(i) 1 Light up! Light up, Jerusalem! For come has your light, and the glory of Yahweh over you is radiant." 2 For behold! The darkness is covering the earth, and murkiness the folkstems, yet, over you, radiant is Yahweh, and His glory over you is appearing." 3 And the nations will go to your light, and kings to the brightness of your radiance." 4 Lift your eyes around and see your children. All of them are convened. They come to you. Behold! All your sons from afar are coming, and your daughters on the side are being fostered." 5 Then you shall see and beam. And awed and wide will be your heart, for turned to you shall be the throng of the sea. The estate of nations shall come to you." 6 An accumulation of camels shall cover you, dromedaries of Midian and Ephah, all those from Sheba shall come. Gold and frankincense and precious stones shall they carry, and of the praises of Yahweh shall they bear tidings." 7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be convened to you, and the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to you. They shall ascend with acceptance on My altar, and My house of prayer will I beautify." 8 Who are these? As a thick cloud are they flying, and as doves to their crevices." 9 For to Me the boats of the coastlands are stretching, and the ships of Tharshish among the first, to bring your sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, to the name of Yahweh, your Elohim, and to the Holy One of Israel, for He beautifies you." 10 And your walls are built by sons of foreigners, and their kings shall minister to you. For, in My wrath, I smote you, yet, in My acceptance, I have compassion on you." 11 And your gates are open continually. By day and night they shall not be closed, for bringing to you the estate of the nations, with their kings leading." 12 For the nation and the kingdom which will not serve you shall perish, and these nations shall be deserted, yea deserted." 13 Its glory does Lebanon give to you, and to you it shall come; the fir, and the elm, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of My sanctuary, when the place of My feet will I glorify." 14 And go to you to prostrate shall all the sons of your humiliators, and worship at the soles of your feet shall all your spurners. And they call you the city of Yahweh, Zion of the Holy One of Israel."
