Zion Glorified

60 “Arise, shine! For your light has come,

and the glory of Yahweh has risen on you.

2 For look! darkness shall cover the earth,

and thick darkness the peoples,

buta Yahweh will rise on you,

and his glory will appear over you.

3 And nations shall come to your light,

and kings to the bright light of your sunrise.

4 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.

5 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.

6 A multitude of camels shall cover you,

the young male camels of Midian and Ephah.

All those from Sheba shall come;

they shall bring gold and frankincense,

and they shall proclaim the praise of Yahweh.

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

the rams of Nebaioth shall serve you.

They shall present a sacrifice for favor on my altar,

and I will glorify ⌊my honorable house⌋.b
