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.
aAnd milk the breast of kings;
You shall know that bI, the Lord, am your Savior
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
Instead of iron I will bring silver,
Instead of wood, bronze,
And instead of stones, iron.
I will also make your officers peace,
And your magistrates righteousness.
Neither1 wasting nor destruction within your borders;
But you shall call ayour walls Salvation,
And your gates Praise.
God the Glory of His People
Nor for brightness shall the moon give light to you;
But the Lord will be to you an everlasting light,
And byour God your glory.

Isaiah 60:13
And I will make the place of my feet glorious "And that I may glorify the place whereon I rest my feet" - The temple of Jerusalem was called the house of God, and the place of his rest or residence. The visible symbolical appearance of God, called by the Jews the schechinah , was in the most holy place, between the wings of the cherubim, above the ark. This is considered as the throne of God, presiding as King over the Jewish state; and as a footstool is a necessary appendage to a throne, (see note on Isaiah 52:2 (note)), the ark is considered as the footstool of God, and is so called, Psalms 99:6; I Chronicles 28:2.
The glory of Lebanon - That is, the cedar.
