Isaiah 60:16
Compare all
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. 

God the Glory of His People

19 “The asun shall no longer be your light by day,
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. 
20 aYour sun shall no longer go down,
Nor shall your moon withdraw itself;
For the Lord will be your everlasting light,
And the days of your mourning shall be ended. 
21 aAlso your people shall all be righteous;
bThey shall inherit the land forever,
cThe branch of My planting,
dThe work of My hands,
That I may be glorified. 
22 aA little one shall become a thousand,
And a small one a strong nation.
I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.”
