Isaiah 60:10–17

^10vForeigners shall build up your walls,

and ^vtheir kings shall minister to you;

for in my wrath I struck you,

but in my favor I have had mercy on you.

^11wYour gates shall be open continually;

day and night they shall not be shut,

^wthat people may bring to you the wealth of the nations,

with their kings led in procession.

^12xFor the nation and kingdom

that will not serve you shall perish;

those nations shall be utterly laid waste.

^13yThe glory of Lebanon shall come to you,

the cypress, the plane, and ^zthe pine,

to beautify the place of my sanctuary,

and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

^14aThe sons of those who afflicted you

shall come bending low to you,

^band all who despised you

shall bow down at your feet;

^cthey shall call you the City of the Lord,

the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

^15dWhereas you have been forsaken and hated,

with no one passing through,

^eI will make you majestic forever,

a joy from age to age.

^16fYou shall suck the milk of nations;

you shall nurse at the breast of kings;

and you shall know that ^gI, the Lord, am your Savior

and your Redeemer, ^hthe Mighty One of Jacob.

¹⁷Instead of bronze I will bring gold,

and instead of iron I will bring silver;

instead of wood, bronze,

instead of stones, iron.

I will make your overseers peace

ⁱand your taskmasters righteousness.
