Your sons are coming from far away, and they carry your daughters in their arms. As you see this, your eyes will shine with joy. Your hearts will beat fast, and you will be proud to see them. Traders will bring valuable things to you from lands across the seas. The riches of other nations will come to you. 6Traders will bring things on their camels so that your roads are full. Young camels will come from Midian and from Ephah. People will come from Sheba. They will bring gold and incense. They will sing aloud to praise the Lord. 7All the sheep and goats in Kedar will come to you. They will give you sheep from Nebaioth, and I will accept them as sacrifices on my altar. I will make my temple great and beautiful.
