60:3 Nations come to your light,
kings to your bright light.
35:9 No lions will be there,
no ferocious wild animals will be on it 1 –
they will not be found there.
Those delivered from bondage will travel on it,
60:14 The children of your oppressors will come bowing to you;
all who treated you with disrespect will bow down at your feet.
They will call you, ‘The City of the Lord,
Zion of the Holy One of Israel.’ 2
2:3 many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mountain,
to the temple of the God of Jacob,
so 3 he can teach us his requirements, 4
and 5 we can follow his standards.” 6
For Zion will be the center for moral instruction; 7
the Lord will issue edicts from Jerusalem. 8
