60:1 “Arise! Shine! For your light arrives!
The splendor
60:2 For, look, darkness covers the earth
and deep darkness covers
but the Lord shines on you;
his splendor
60:3 Nations come to your light,
kings to your bright light.
60:4 Look all around you!
They all gather and come to you –
your sons come from far away
and your daughters are escorted by guardians.
60:5 Then you will look and smile,
you will be excited and your heart will swell with pride.
For the riches of distant lands
and the wealth of nations will come to you.
