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.
Nor shall your moon withdraw itself;
For the Lord will be your everlasting light,
And the days of your mourning shall be ended.
| << Isaiah 60:14 | Isaiah 60:16 >> |
