The Eternal Covenant of Peace

1 ^a“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear;
break forth into singing and cry aloud,
you who have not been in labor!
For the children of ^bthe desolate one ^cwill be more
than the children of her who is married,” says the Lord.
2 ^d“Enlarge the place of your tent,
and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out;
do not hold back; lengthen your cords
and strengthen your stakes.
3 ^eFor you will spread abroad to the right and to the left,
and your offspring will possess the nations
and will people the desolate cities.

they all gather together, they come to you;
^gyour sons shall come from afar,
and your daughters shall be carried on the hip.

Isaiah 60:11

11 ^hYour gates shall be open continually;
day and night they shall not be shut,
ⁱthat people may bring to you the wealth of the nations,
with their kings led in procession.
