Isaiah 60:12-14

60:12 Indeed, ¹  nations or kingdoms that do not serve you will perish;

such nations will be totally destroyed. ² 

60:13 The splendor of Lebanon will come to you,

its evergreens, firs, and cypresses together,

to beautify my palace; ³ 

I will bestow honor on my throne room. ⁴ 

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.’ ⁵
