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.
bThey shall inherit the land forever,
cThe branch of My planting,
dThe work of My hands,
That I may be glorified.
And a small one a strong nation.
I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.”
| << Isaiah 60:20 | Isaiah 60:22 >> |
