Revised Version 1895

1AriseH6965, shineH215; for thy lightH216 is comeH935, and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 is risenH6965 uponH5921 thee. 2For, beholdH2009, darknessH2822 shall coverH3680 the earthH776, and gross darknessH2822 the peoplesH3816: but the LORDH3068 shall arise uponH5921 thee, and his gloryH3519 shall be seenH7200 uponH5921 thee. 3And nationsH1471 shall comeH1980 to thy lightH216, and kingsH4428 to the brightnessH5051 of thy risingH2225. 4LiftH5375 upH5375 thine eyesH5869 roundH5439 aboutH5439, and seeH7200: they allH3605 gatherH6908 themselvesH5921 togetherH6908, they comeH935 to thee: thy sonsH1121 shall comeH935 from farH7350, and thy daughtersH1323 shall be carriedH5375 in the armsH6654. 5Then thou shalt seeH7200 and be lightened, and thine heartH3824 shall trembleH6342 and be enlargedH7337; becauseH3588 the abundanceH1995 of the seaH3220 shall be turnedH2015 unto thee, the wealthH2428 of the nationsH1471 shall comeH935 unto thee. 6The multitudeH8229 of camelsH1581 shall coverH3680 thee, the dromedaries of MidianH4080 and EphahH5891; they allH3605 shall comeH935 from ShebaH7614: they shall bringH935 goldH2091 and frankincenseH3828, and shall proclaimH1319 the praisesH8416 of the LORDH3068. 7AllH3605 the flocksH6629 of KedarH6938 shall be gatheredH6908 togetherH6908 unto thee, the ramsH352 of NebaiothH5032 shall ministerH8334 unto thee: they shall comeH5927 upH5927 with acceptanceH7522 on mine altarH4196, and I will glorifyH6286 the houseH1004 of my gloryH8597. 8Who are theseH428 that flyH5774 as a cloudH5645, and as the dovesH3123 to their windowsH699? 9SurelyH3588 the islesH339 shall waitH6960 for meH935, and the shipsH591 of TarshishH8659 firstH7223, to bringH935 thy sonsH1121 from farH7350, their silverH3701 and their goldH2091 with them, for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and for the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478, becauseH3588 he hath glorifiedH6286 thee. 10And strangers shall buildH1129 upH1129 thy wallsH2346, and their kingsH4428 shall ministerH8334 unto thee: for in my wrathH7110 I smoteH5221 thee, but in my favour have I had mercyH7355 on thee. 11Thy gatesH8179 also shall be openH6605 continuallyH8548; they shall notH3808 be shutH5462 dayH3119 norH3808 nightH3915; that men may bringH935 unto thee the wealthH2428 of the nationsH1471; and their kingsH4428 ledH5090 with them. 12For that nationH1471 and kingdomH4467 that will notH3808 serveH5647 thee shall perishH6; yeaH3588, thoseH834 nationsH1471 shall be utterlyH6 wasted. 13The gloryH3519 of LebanonH3844 shall comeH935 unto thee, the firH1265 treeH8410, the pine, and the boxH8410 treeH8410 togetherH3162; to beautifyH6286 the placeH4725 of my sanctuaryH4720; and I will makeH3513 the placeH4725 of my feetH7272 gloriousH3513. 14And the sonsH1121 of them that afflictedH1121 thee shall comeH1980 bending unto thee; and allH3605 they that despisedH5006 thee shall bowH7812 themselvesH7812 downH7812 at the solesH3709 of thy feetH7272; and they shall callH7121 thee The cityH5892 of the LORDH3068, The ZionH6726 of the HolyH6918 One of IsraelH3478. 15WhereasH8478 thou hast been forsaken and hatedH8130, soH1961 that noH369 manH369 passedH5674 throughH5674 thee, I will makeH7760 thee an eternalH5769 excellency, a joyH4885 of manyH1755 generationsH1755. 16Thou shalt also suckH3243 the milkH2461 of the nationsH1471, and shalt suckH3243 the breastH7699 of kingsH4428: and thou shalt knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 am thy saviour, and thy redeemerH1350, the MightyH46 One of JacobH3290. 17For brassH5178 I will bringH935 goldH2091, and for ironH1270 I will bringH935 silverH3701, and for woodH6086 brassH5178, and for stonesH68 ironH1270: I will also makeH7760 thy officersH6486 peaceH7965, and thine exactors righteousnessH6666. 18ViolenceH2555 shall noH3808 moreH5750 be heardH8085 in thy landH776, desolation norH3808 destructionH7667 withinH5750 thy bordersH1366; but thou shalt callH7121 thy wallsH2346 SalvationH3444, and thy gatesH8179 PraiseH8416. 19The sunH8121 shall be noH3808 moreH5750 thy lightH216 by dayH3119; neitherH3808 for brightnessH5051 shall the moonH3394 giveH215 lightH216 unto thee: but the LORDH3068 shall be unto thee an everlastingH5769 lightH216, and thy GodH430 thy gloryH8597. 20Thy sunH8121 shall noH3808 moreH5750 goH935 downH3588, neitherH3808 shall thy moon withdrawH622 itself: for the LORDH3068 shall be thine everlastingH5769 lightH216, and the daysH3117 of thy mourningH60 shall be ended. 21Thy peopleH5971 also shall be allH3605 righteousH6662, they shall inheritH3423 the landH776 for everH5769; the branchH5342 of my plantingH4302, the workH4639 of my handsH3027, that I may be glorifiedH6286. 22The littleH6810 one shall becomeH1961 a thousandH505, and the smallH6996 one a strongH6099 nationH1471: I the LORDH3068 will hasten it in itsH1961 time.
