3“Nations will come to your light,

And kings to the brightness of your rising.

4“Raise your eyes all around and see;

They all gather together, they come to you.

Your sons will come from afar,

And your daughters will be carried on the hip.

5“Then you will see and be radiant,

And your heart will thrill and rejoice;

Because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you,

The wealth of the nations will come to you.

6“A multitude of camels will cover you,

The young camels of Midian and Ephah;

All those from Sheba will come;

They will bring gold and frankincense,

And proclaim good news of the praises of the Lord.

7“All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you,

The rams of Nebaioth will serve you;

They will go up on My altar with acceptance,

And I will glorify My glorious house.

8“Who are these who fly like a cloud

And like the doves to their windows?

9“Certainly the coastlands will wait for Me;

And the ships of Tarshish will come first,

To bring your sons from afar,

Their silver and their gold with them,

For the name of the Lord your God,

And for the Holy One of Israel because He has glorified you.

10“Foreigners will build up your walls,

And their kings will serve you;

For in My wrath I struck you,

And in My favor I have had compassion on you.

11“Your gates will be open continually;

They will not be closed day or night,

So that people may bring you the wealth of the nations,

With their kings led in procession.

12“For the nation and the kingdom which will not serve you will perish,

And the nations will be utterly ruined.

13“The glory of Lebanon will come to you,

The juniper, the elm tree and the cedar together,

To beautify the place of My sanctuary;

And I will make the place of My feet glorious.

14“The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you,

And all those who despised you will bow down at the soles of your feet;

And they will call you the city of the Lord,

The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
