2For beholdH2009, 1darknessH2822 will coverH3680 the earthH776 And deepH6205 darknessH6205 the peoplesH3816; But the LordH3068 will riseH2224 upon you And His 2gloryH3519 will appearH7200 upon you.33NationsH1471 will comeH1980 to your lightH216, And kingsH4428 to the brightnessH5051 of your risingH2225.

4“4LiftH5375 up your eyesH5869 roundH5439 aboutH5439 and seeH7200; They allH3605 gatherH6908 together, they 5comeH935 to you. Your sonsH1121 will comeH935 from afarH7350, And your 6daughtersH1323 will be 7carriedH539 in the armsH6654.5ThenH227 you will seeH7200 and be 8radiantH5102, And your heartH3824 will 9thrillH6342 and rejoiceH7337; BecauseH3588 the 10abundanceH1995 of the seaH3220 will be turnedH2015 to you, The 11wealthH2428 of the nationsH1471 will comeH935 to you.6A multitudeH8229 of camelsH1581 will coverH3680 you, The youngH1072 camelsH1072 of MidianH4080 and 12EphahH5891; AllH3605 those from 13ShebaH7614 will comeH935; They will bringH5375 14goldH2091 and frankincenseH3828, And will 15bearH1319 good newsH1319 of the praisesH8416 of the LordH3068.7AllH3605 the flocksH6629 of 16KedarH6938 will be gatheredH6908 together to you, The ramsH352 of NebaiothH5032 will ministerH8334 to you; They will goH5927 up with acceptanceH7522 on My 17altarH4196, And I shall 1819glorifyH6286 My 20gloriousH8597 houseH1004.821WhoH4310 are theseH428 who flyH5774 like a cloudH5645 And like the dovesH3123 to their 22latticesH699?9SurelyH3588 the 23coastlandsH339 will waitH6960 for Me; And the 24shipsH591 of TarshishH8659 will come firstH7223, To 25bringH935 your sonsH1121 from afarH7350, Their silverH3701 and their goldH2091 with them, For the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, And for the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 becauseH3588 He has 2627glorifiedH6286 you.

10“28ForeignersH1121 will buildH1129 up your wallsH2346, And their 29kingsH4428 will ministerH8334 to you; For in My 30wrathH7110 I struckH5221 you, And in My favorH7522 I have hadH7355 compassionH7355 on you.11Your 31gatesH8179 will be openH6605 continuallyH8548; They will not be closedH5462 dayH3119 or nightH3915, So that men may 32bringH935 to you the wealthH2428 of the nationsH1471, With 33their kingsH4428 ledH5090 in processionH5090.12For the 34nationH1471 and the kingdomH4467 whichH834 will not serveH5647 you will perishH6, And the nationsH1471 will be utterlyH2717 ruinedH2717.13The 35gloryH3519 of LebanonH3844 will comeH935 to you, The 36juniperH1265, the boxH8410 treeH8410 and the cypressH8391 togetherH3164, To beautifyH6286 the placeH4725 of My sanctuaryH4720; And I shall makeH3513 the 37placeH4725 of My feetH7272 gloriousH3513.14The 38sonsH1121 of those who afflictedH6031 you will comeH1980 bowingH7817 to you, And allH3605 those who despisedH5006 you will bowH7812 themselves at the solesH3709 of your feetH7272; And they will callH7121 you the 39cityH5892 of the LordH3068, The 40ZionH6726 of the HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.

15“WhereasH8478 you have beenH1961 41forsakenH5800 and 42hatedH8130 With noH369 oneH369 passingH5674 throughH5674, I will makeH7760 you an everlastingH5769 43prideH1347, A joyH4885 from generationH1755 to generationH1755.16You will also 44suckH3243 the milkH2461 of nationsH1471 And suckH3243 the breastH7699 of kingsH4428; Then you will knowH3045 that I, the LordH3068, am your 45SaviorH3467 And your 46RedeemerH1350, the MightyH46 OneH46 of JacobH3290.17InsteadH8478 of bronzeH5178 I will bringH935 goldH2091, And insteadH8478 of ironH1270 I will bringH935 silverH3701, And insteadH8478 of woodH6086, bronzeH5178, And insteadH8478 of stonesH68, ironH1270. And I will makeH7760 peaceH7965 your administratorsH6486 And righteousnessH6666 your overseersH5065.1847ViolenceH2555 will not be heardH8085 againH5750 in your landH776, NorH3808 48devastationH7701 or destructionH7667 within your bordersH1366; But you will callH7121 your 49wallsH2346 salvationH3444, and your 50gatesH8179 praiseH8416.19NoH3808 longerH5750 will you haveH1961 the 51sunH8121 for lightH216 by dayH3119, NorH3808 for brightnessH5051 will the moonH3394 giveH215 you lightH215; But you will haveH1961 the 52LordH3068 for an everlastingH5769 lightH216, And your 53GodH430 for your 54gloryH8597.20Your 55sunH8121 will noH3808 longerH5750 setH935, NorH3808 will your moonH3394 waneH622; For you will haveH1961 the LordH3068 for an everlastingH5769 lightH216, And the daysH3117 of your 56mourningH60 will be overH7999.
