Isaiah 60:1

The Gentiles Bless Zion

1 Arise, ^ashine;
For your light has come!
And ^bthe glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

2 For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you,
And His glory will be seen upon you.

3 The ^aGentiles shall come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.

4 “Lift^a up your eyes all around, and see:
They all gather together, ^bthey come to you;
Your sons shall come from afar,
And your daughters shall be nursed at your side.

5 Then you shall see and become radiant,
And your heart shall swell with joy;
Because ^athe abundance of the sea shall be turned to you,
The wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you.

6 The multitude of camels shall cover your land,
The dromedaries of Midian and ^aEphah;
All those from ^bSheba shall come;
They shall bring ^cgold and incense,
And they shall proclaim the praises of the Lord.

Isaiah 60:1

Arise - Call upon God through Christ, for his salvation; and,

Shine - ori , be illuminated: for till thou arise and call upon God, thou wilt never receive true light.

For thy light is come - ki ba orech , for thy light cometh. The Messiah is at the door; who, while he is a light to lighten the Gentiles, will be the glory - the effulgence, of his people Israel.
