They shall not be shut day or night,
That men may bring to you the wealth of the Gentiles,
And their kings in procession.
And those nations shall be utterly ruined.
The cypress, the pine, and the box tree together,
To beautify the place of My sanctuary;
And I will make bthe place of My feet glorious.
Shall come abowing to you,
And all those who despised you shall bfall prostrate at the soles of your feet;
And they shall call you The City of the Lord,
cZion of the Holy One of Israel.
So that no one went through you,
I will make you an eternal excellence,
A joy of many generations.

Isaiah 60:13
glory—that is, the trees which adorned Lebanon; emblem of men eminent in natural gifts, devoting all that is in them to the God of Israel (Hosea 14:5-6).
fir . . . pine . . . box—rather, "the cypress . . . ilex . . . cedar."
place of my sanctuary—Jerusalem (Jeremiah 3:17).
place of my feet—no longer the ark (Jeremiah 3:16), "the footstool" of Jehovah (Psalms 99:5; Psalms 132:7; I Chronicles 28:2); but "the place of His throne, the place of the soles of His feet, where He will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever," in the new temple (Ezekiel 43:7).
