Isaiah 60:3–12

³And nations shall come to your light,

and kings to the bright light of your sunrise.

⁴Lift 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.

⁵Then 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.

⁶A 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.

⁷All 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

⁸Who are these? They fly like a cloud,

and like doves to their coops.

⁹Because the coastlands wait for me,

and the ships of Tarshish are first

to bring your children from afar,

their silver and gold with them,

for the name of Yahweh your God,

and for the holy one of Israel, because he has glorified you.

¹⁰And foreigners^c shall build your walls,

and their kings shall serve you,

for in my anger I struck you,

but^d in my favor I have taken pity on you.

¹¹And your gates shall continually be open,

day and night they shall not be shut,

to bring you the wealth of nations,

and their kings shall be led.

¹²For the nation and the kingdom that will not serve you shall perish,

and the nations shall be utterly devastated.
