God the Glory of Zion

19 The sun shall no longer be

your light by day,

nor for brightness shall the moon

give light to you by night;b

but the Lord will be your everlasting light,

and your God will be your glory.

20 Your sun shall no more go down,

or your moon withdraw itself;

for the Lord will be your everlasting light,

and your days of mourning shall be ended.

21 Your people shall all be righteous;

they shall possess the land forever.

They are the shoot that I planted, the work of my hands,

so that I might be glorified.

22 The least of them shall become a clan,

and the smallest one a mighty nation;

I am the Lord;

in its time I will accomplish it quickly.
