THE LORD’S GLORY IN ZION

60 Arise, shine, for your light has come,q

and the glory of the Lord shines over you.B,r

2 For look, darkness will cover the earth,

and total darkness the peoples;

but the Lord will shine over you,

and his glory will appear over you.

3 Nations will come to your light,

and kings to your shining brightness.s

4 Raise your eyes and look around:

they all gather and come to you;

your sons will come from far away,

and your daughters on the hips of nursing mothers.t

5 Then you will see and be radiant,u

and your heart will tremble and rejoice,C

because the riches of the sea will become yours

and the wealth of the nations will come to you.v

6 Caravans of camels will cover your landA—

young camels of Midian and Ephah—

all of them will come from Sheba.a

They will carry gold and frankincenseb

and proclaim the praises of the Lord.

7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you;

the rams of Nebaioth will serve youc

and go up on my altar as an acceptable sacrifice.d

I will glorify my beautiful house.e
