Isaiah 60:16

Isaiah 60:16

14 Also the sons of those who afflicted you
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.

15 “Whereas you have been forsaken and hated,
So that no one went through you,
I will make you an eternal excellence,
A joy of many generations.

16 You shall drink the milk of the Gentiles,
^aAnd milk the breast of kings;
You shall know that ^bI, the Lord, am your Savior
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

17 “Instead of bronze I will bring gold,
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.

18 Violence shall no longer be heard in your land,
Neither¹ wasting nor destruction within your borders;
But you shall call ^ayour walls Salvation,
And your gates Praise.
