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.

A multitude of camels shall cover you,

the young camels of Midian and Ephah;

They shall bring gold and frankincense,

and shall bring good news, the praises of the Lord.

and kings to your shining brightness.

Raise your eyes and look around:

they all gather and come to you;

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.

Caravans of camels will cover your land—

young camels of Midian and Ephah—

all of them will come from Sheba.

They will carry gold and frankincense

and proclaim the praises of the Lord.

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.

Vast caravans of camels will converge on you,

the camels of Midian and Ephah.

The people of Sheba will bring gold and frankincense

and will come worshiping the Lord.

KJV 1900King James Version

And the Gentiles shall come to thy light,

And kings to the brightness of thy rising.

Lift up thine eyes round about, and see:

All they gather themselves together, they come to thee:

Thy sons shall come from far,

And thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.

Then thou shalt see, and flow together,

And thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged;

Because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee,

The forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.

The multitude of camels shall cover thee,

The dromedaries of Midian and Ephah;

All they from Sheba shall come:

They shall bring gold and incense;

And they shall shew forth the praises of the Lord.
