ESVEnglish Standard Version

Arise, shine, for your light has come,

and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.

For behold, darkness shall cover the earth,

and thick darkness the peoples;

but the Lord will arise upon you,

and his glory will be seen upon you.

And nations shall come to your light,

and kings to the brightness of your rising.

Lift up your eyes all around, and see;

they all gather together, they come to you;

your sons shall come from afar,

and your daughters shall be carried on the hip.

Then you shall see and be radiant;

your heart shall thrill and exult,

because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you,

the wealth of the nations shall come to you.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“Arise, shine, for your light has come,

and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.

See, darkness covers the earth

and thick darkness is over the peoples,

but the Lord rises upon you

and his glory appears over you.

Nations will come to your light,

and kings to the brightness of your dawn.

“Lift up your eyes and look about you:

All assemble and come to you;

your sons come from afar,

and your daughters are carried on the hip.

Then you will look and be radiant,

your heart will throb and swell with joy;

the wealth on the seas will be brought to you,

to you the riches of the nations will come.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Arise, shine, for your light has come,

and the glory of the Lord shines over you.

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.

Nations will come to your light,

and kings to your shining brightness.

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.

Then you will see and be radiant,

and your heart will tremble and rejoice,

because the riches of the sea will become yours

and the wealth of the nations will come to you.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see.

For the glory of the Lord rises to shine on you.

Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth,

but the glory of the Lord rises and appears over you.

All nations will come to your light;

mighty kings will come to see your radiance.

“Look and see, for everyone is coming home!

Your sons are coming from distant lands;

your little daughters will be carried home.

Your eyes will shine,

and your heart will thrill with joy,

for merchants from around the world will come to you.

They will bring you the wealth of many lands.

“Arise, shine! For your light has come,

and the glory of Yahweh has risen on you.

For look! darkness shall cover the earth,

and thick darkness the peoples,

but Yahweh will rise on you,

and his glory will appear over you.

And nations shall come to your light,

and kings to the bright light of your sunrise.

Lift up your eyes all around and see!

All of them gather; they come to you.

Your sons shall come from afar,

and your daughters shall be looked after on the hip.

Then you shall see

and you shall be radiant;

and your heart shall tremble

and open itself wide,

because the abundance of the sea shall fall upon you;

the wealth of the nations shall come to you.
