Isaiah 60:2-22

60:2

For, behold, the darkness
<02822>

shall cover
<03680> (8762)

the earth
<0776>_,

and gross darkness
<06205>

the people
<03816>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

shall arise
<02224> (8799)

upon thee, and his glory
<03519>

shall be seen
<07200> (8735)

upon thee.

60:3

And the Gentiles
<01471>

shall come
<01980> (8804)

to thy light
<0216>_,

and kings
<04428>

to the brightness
<05051>

of thy rising
<02225>_.

60:4

Lift up
<05375> (8798)

thine eyes
<05869>

round about
<05439>_,

and see
<07200> (8798)_:

all they gather themselves together
<06908> (8738)_,

they come
<0935> (8804)

to thee: thy sons
<01121>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

from far
<07350>_,

and thy daughters
<01323>

shall be nursed
<0539> (8735)

at [thy] side
<06654>_.

60:5

Then thou shalt see
<07200> (8799) (8675) <03372> (8799)_,

and flow together
<05102> (8804)_,

and thine heart
<03824>

shall fear
<06342> (8804)_,

and be enlarged
<07337> (8804)_;

because the abundance
<01995>

of the sea
<03220>

shall be converted
<02015> (8735)

unto thee, the forces
<02428>

of the Gentiles
<01471>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto thee. {abundance...: or, noise of the sea shall be turned toward thee} {forces: or, wealth}

60:6

The multitude
<08229>

of camels
<01581>

shall cover
<03680> (8762)

thee, the dromedaries
<01070>

of Midian
<04080>

and Ephah
<05891>_;

all they from Sheba
<07614>

shall come
<0935> (8799)_:

they shall bring
<05375> (8799)

gold
<02091>

and incense
<03828>_;

and they shall shew forth
<01319> (8762)

the praises
<08416>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

60:7

All the flocks
<06629>

of Kedar
<06938>

shall be gathered together
<06908> (8735)

unto thee, the rams
<0352>

of Nebaioth
<05032>

shall minister
<08334> (8762)

unto thee: they shall come up
<05927> (8799)

with acceptance
<07522>

on mine altar
<04196>_,

and I will glorify
<06286> (8762)

the house
<01004>

of my glory
<08597>_.

60:8

Who [are] these [that] fly
<05774> (8799)

as a cloud
<05645>_,

and as the doves
<03123>

to their windows
<0699>_?

60:9

Surely the isles
<0339>

shall wait
<06960> (8762)

for me, and the ships
<0591>

of Tarshish
<08659>

first
<07223>_,

to bring
<0935> (8687)

thy sons
<01121>

from far
<07350>_,

their silver
<03701>

and their gold
<02091>

with them, unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

and to the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_,

because he hath glorified
<06286> (8765)

thee.

60:10

And the sons
<01121>

of strangers
<05236>

shall build up
<01129> (8804)

thy walls
<02346>_,

and their kings
<04428>

shall minister
<08334> (8762)

unto thee: for in my wrath
<07110>

I smote
<05221> (8689)

thee, but in my favour
<07522>

have I had mercy
<07355> (8765)

on thee.

60:11

Therefore thy gates
<08179>

shall be open
<06605> (8765)

continually
<08548>_;

they shall not be shut
<05462> (8735)

day
<03119>

nor night
<03915>_;

that [men] may bring
<0935> (8687)

unto thee the forces
<02428>

of the Gentiles
<01471>_,

and [that] their kings
<04428>

[may be] brought
<05090> (8803)_.

{forces: or, wealth}

60:12

For the nation
<01471>

and kingdom
<04467>

that will not serve
<05647> (8799)

thee shall perish
<06> (8799)_;

yea, [those] nations
<01471>

shall be utterly
<02717> (8800)

wasted
<02717> (8799)_.

60:13

The glory
<03519>

of Lebanon
<03844>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto thee, the fir tree
<01265>_,

the pine tree
<08410>_,

and the box
<08391>

together
<03162>_,

to beautify
<06286> (8763)

the place
<04725>

of my sanctuary
<04720>_;

and I will make the place
<04725>

of my feet
<07272>

glorious
<03513> (8762)_.

60:14

The sons
<01121>

also of them that afflicted
<06031> (8764)

thee shall come
<01980> (8804)

bending
<07817> (8800)

unto thee; and all they that despised
<05006> (8764)

thee shall bow themselves down
<07812> (8694)

at the soles
<03709>

of thy feet
<07272>_;

and they shall call
<07121> (8804)

thee, The city
<05892>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

The Zion
<06726>

of the Holy One
<06918>

of Israel
<03478>_.

60:15

Whereas
<08478>

thou hast been forsaken
<05800> (8803)

and hated
<08130> (8803)_,

so that no man went through
<05674> (8802)

[thee], I will make
<07760> (8804)

thee an eternal
<05769>

excellency
<01347>_,

a joy
<04885>

of many
<01755>

generations
<01755>_.

60:16

Thou shalt also suck
<03243> (8804)

the milk
<02461>

of the Gentiles
<01471>_,

and shalt suck
<03243> (8799)

the breast
<07699>

of kings
<04428>_:

and thou shalt know
<03045> (8804)

that I the LORD
<03068>

[am] thy Saviour
<03467> (8688)

and thy Redeemer
<01350> (8802)_,

the mighty One
<046>

of Jacob
<03290>_.

60:17

For brass
<05178>

I will bring
<0935> (8686)

gold
<02091>_,

and for iron
<01270>

I will bring
<0935> (8686)

silver
<03701>_,

and for wood
<06086>

brass
<05178>_,

and for stones
<068>

iron
<01270>_:

I will also make
<07760> (8804)

thy officers
<06486>

peace
<07965>_,

and thine exactors
<05065> (8802)

righteousness
<06666>_.

60:18

Violence
<02555>

shall no more be heard
<08085> (8735)

in thy land
<0776>_,

wasting
<07701>

nor destruction
<07667>

within thy borders
<01366>_;

but thou shalt call
<07121> (8804)

thy walls
<02346>

Salvation
<03444>_,

and thy gates
<08179>

Praise
<08416>_.

60:19

The sun
<08121>

shall be no more thy light
<0216>

by day
<03119>_;

neither for brightness
<05051>

shall the moon
<03394>

give light
<0216>

unto thee: but the LORD
<03068>

shall be unto thee an everlasting
<05769>

light
<0215> (8686)_,

and thy God
<0430>

thy glory
<08597>_.

60:20

Thy sun
<08121>

shall no more go down
<0935> (8799)_;

neither shall thy moon
<03391>

withdraw
<0622> (8735)

itself: for the LORD
<03068>

shall be thine everlasting
<05769>

light
<0216>_,

and the days
<03117>

of thy mourning
<060>

shall be ended
<07999> (8804)_.

60:21

Thy people
<05971>

also [shall be] all righteous
<06662>_:

they shall inherit
<03423> (8799)

the land
<0776>

for ever
<05769>_,

the branch
<05342>

of my planting
<04302>_,

the work
<04639>

of my hands
<03027>_,

that I may be glorified
<06286> (8692)_.

60:22

A little one
<06996>

shall become a thousand
<0505>_,

and a small one
<06810>

a strong
<06099>

nation
<01471>_:

I the LORD
<03068>

will hasten
<02363> (8686)

it in his time
<06256>_.
