ESVEnglish Standard Version

Your sun shall no more go down,

nor your moon withdraw itself;

for the Lord will be your everlasting light,

and your days of mourning shall be ended.

Your people shall all be righteous;

they shall possess the land forever,

the branch of my planting, the work of my hands,

that I might be glorified.

The least one shall become a clan,

and the smallest one a mighty nation;

I am the Lord;

in its time I will hasten it.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Your sun will never set again,

and your moon will wane no more;

the Lord will be your everlasting light,

and your days of sorrow will end.

Then all your people will be righteous

and they will possess the land forever.

They are the shoot I have planted,

the work of my hands,

for the display of my splendor.

The least of you will become a thousand,

the smallest a mighty nation.

I am the Lord;

in its time I will do this swiftly.”

Your sun will no longer set,

and your moon will not fade;

for the Lord will be your everlasting light,

and the days of your sorrow will be over.

All your people will be righteous;

they will possess the land forever;

they are the branch I planted,

the work of my hands,

so that I may be glorified.

The least will become a thousand,

the smallest a mighty nation.

I am the Lord;

I will accomplish it quickly in its time.

NLTNew Living Translation

Your sun will never set;

your moon will not go down.

For the Lord will be your everlasting light.

Your days of mourning will come to an end.

All your people will be righteous.

They will possess their land forever,

for I will plant them there with my own hands

in order to bring myself glory.

The smallest family will become a thousand people,

and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation.

At the right time, I, the Lord, will make it happen.”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Your sun shall no longer go down,

and your moon shall not wane,

for Yahweh himself will be your everlasting light,

and your days of mourning shall come to an end.

And all your people shall be righteous;

they shall take possession of the land forever,

the shoot of his planting,

the work of my hands, to show my glory.

The small one shall become a tribe,

and the smallest one a mighty nation.

I am Yahweh; I will hasten it in its time.”
