Isaiah 60

1Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of the Yahuah is risen upon you. 2For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Yahuah shall arise upon you, and his glory shall be seen upon you. 3And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. 4Lift up your eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to you: your sons shall come from far, and your daughters shall be nursed at side. 5Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto you. 6The multitude of camels shall cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the Yahuah. 7All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto you, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto you: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory. 8Who these fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows? 9Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the Yahuah your Elohim, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you. 10And the sons of strangers shall build up your walls, and their kings shall minister unto you: for in my wrath I smote you, but in my favour have I had mercy on you. 11Therefore your gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that may bring unto you the forces of the Gentiles, and their kings brought. 12For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, nations shall be utterly wasted. 13The glory of Lebanon shall come unto you, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious. 14The sons also of them that afflicted you shall come bending unto you; and all they that despised you shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet; and they shall call you, The city of the Yahuah, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. 15Whereas you hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through , I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. 16you shall also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shall suck the breast of kings: and you shall know that I the Yahuah your Saviour and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 17For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make your officers peace, and your exactors righteousness. 18Violence shall no more be heard in your land, wasting nor destruction within your borders; but you shall call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise. 19The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto you: but the Yahuah shall be unto you an everlasting light, and your Elohim your glory. 20your sun shall no more go down; neither shall your moon withdraw itself: for the Yahuah shall be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended. 21your people also all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified. 22A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Yahuah will hasten it in his time.
