5. Then you shall see and be radiant,your heart shall throb and overflow.For the riches of the sea shall be poured out before you,the wealth of nations shall come to you.
6. Caravans of camels shall cover you,dromedaries of Midian and Ephah;All from Sheba shall comebearing gold and frankincense,and heralding the praises of the Lord.
7. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered for you,the rams of Nebaioth shall serve your needs;They will be acceptable offerings on my altar,and I will glorify my glorious house.
8. Who are these that fly along like a cloud,like doves to their cotes?
9. The vessels of the coastlands are gathering,with the ships of Tarshish in the lead,To bring your children from afar,their silver and gold with them—For the name of the Lord, your God,for the Holy One of Israel who has glorified you.
10. Foreigners shall rebuild your walls,their kings shall minister to you;Though in my wrath I struck you,yet in my good will I have shown you mercy.
11. Your gates shall stand open constantly;day and night they shall not be closedSo that they may bring you the wealth of nations,with their kings in the vanguard.
12. For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you shall perish;such nations shall be utterly destroyed!
13. The glory of Lebanon shall come to you—the juniper, the fir, and the cypress all together—To bring beauty to my sanctuary,and glory to the place where I stand.
14. The children of your oppressors shall come,bowing before you;All those who despised you,shall bow low at your feet.They shall call you “City of the Lord,”“Zion of the Holy One of Israel.”
15. No longer forsaken and hated,with no one passing through,Now I will make you the pride of the ages,a joy from generation to generation.
16. You shall suck the milk of nations,and be nursed at royal breasts;And you shall know that I, the Lord, am your savior,your redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
