Isaiah 60

CHAPTER 60 The Glory of The LORD upon Jerusalem

1 Be enlightened! Be enlightened, O Jerusalem! [⁴is come ¹for ²your ³light], and the glory of the lord [²upon ³you ¹has risen]. 2 Behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and a dimness upon nations; [⁴upon ¹but ⁵you ³shall appear ²the lord], and his glory [²upon ³you ¹shall be seen]. 3 And [²shall go ¹nations] by your light, and kings in your brightness. 4 Lift [²round about ¹your eyes], and behold [³gathering together ¹all ²your children]! [³come ¹All ²your sons] from far off, and your daughters [²upon ³shoulders ¹shall be carried]. 5 Then you shall see, and shall be fearful, and shall be startled in the heart; for [³shall turn ⁴unto ⁵you ¹the riches ²of the sea], and of nations, and of peoples; and they shall come to you. 6 Herds of camels, and [⁵shall cover ⁶you ¹camels ²of Midian ³and ⁴Ephah]; [²all ⁴from out of ⁵Sheba ¹they ³come] bringing gold and frankincense; and [²the ³deliverance ⁴of the lord ¹they shall announce as good news]. 7 And all the sheep of Kedar shall be gathered together to you, and rams of Nebaioth shall come to you; and [²shall be offered ¹acceptable sacrifices] upon my altar, and the house of my prayer shall be glorified. 8 Who thus as clouds fly, even as doves with young? 9 [³for me ¹Islands ²waited], and boats of Tarshish are among the first to lead your children from far off, and [²silver ³and ⁴gold ¹their] is with them, on account of the [²name ³of the lord ¹holy], and on account of the holy one of Israel to be glorious. 10 And [²shall build ¹foreigners] your walls, and their kings shall stand beside you. For on account of my anger I struck you, and on account of mercy I loved you. 11 And [²shall be open ¹your gates] continually; day and night they shall not be locked; to bring in to you the force of nations, and their kings leading. 12 For the nations and the kings which will not serve to you shall perish; and the nations [³unto desolation ¹shall be made desolate]. 13 And the glory of Lebanon [²to ³you ¹shall come] with cypress and pine and cedar together, to glorify [²place ¹my holy]. And the place of their feet I will glorify. 14 And they shall go to you being in awe -- sons of the ones humbling you. And [⁵shall do obeisance at ⁶the ⁷soles ⁸of your feet ¹all ²the ones who ³provoked ⁴you]. And you shall be called, City of the lord, Zion of Holy Israel. 15 Because you became abandoned and detested, and there was no one helping, even I will make you [²leap for joy ¹an everlasting], a gladness to generations of generations. 16 And you shall nurse milk of nations, and [²wealth ³of kings ¹you shall eat]. And you shall know that I am the lord, the one delivering you, and rescuing you -- the God of Jacob. 17 And instead of brass, I shall bring to you gold; and instead of iron, I shall bring to you silver; and instead of wood, I shall bring to you brass; and instead of stones -- iron; and I shall appoint your rulers for peace, and your overseers for righteousness. 18 And [²shall not ⁴be heard ³any longer ¹injustice] in your land, nor destruction, nor misery within your borders. And [²shall be called ³Deliverance ¹your walls], and your gates, Carving. 19 And [³will not be ⁴to you ⁵any longer ¹the ²sun] for the light of day, nor the rising moon shall give light to you at night. But [²will be ³to you ¹the lord ⁵light ⁴an eternal], even the God of your glory. 20 [⁴shall not ¹For ⁵go down ²the ³sun] to you, and the moon [³to you ¹shall not ²subside]. [³will be ¹For ⁴to you ²the lord ⁶light ⁵an eternal]. And [⁴shall be fulfilled ¹the ²days ³of your mourning]. 21 And your people are all righteous, and [⁴through ⁵the eon ¹they shall inherit ²the ³earth], keeping the thing planted, even the works of their hands for glory. 22 The very few will be for thousands, and the least for [²nation ¹a great]. I the lord in due time shall gather them.
