New Living Translation

Isaiah 60:7-14 New Living Translation (NLT)

7. The flocks of Kedar will be given to you,and the rams of Nebaioth will be brought for my altars.I will accept their offerings,and I will make my Temple glorious.

8. “And what do I see flying like clouds to Israel,like doves to their nests?

9. They are ships from the ends of the earth,from lands that trust in me,led by the great ships of Tarshish.They are bringing the people of Israel home from far away,carrying their silver and gold.They will honor the lord your God,the Holy One of Israel,for he has filled you with splendor.

10. “Foreigners will come to rebuild your towns,and their kings will serve you.For though I have destroyed you in my anger,I will now have mercy on you through my grace.

11. Your gates will stay open day and nightto receive the wealth of many lands.The kings of the world will be led as captivesin a victory procession.

12. For the nations that refuse to serve youwill be destroyed.

13. “The glory of Lebanon will be yours—the forests of cypress, fir, and pine—to beautify my sanctuary.My Temple will be glorious!

14. The descendants of your tormentorswill come and bow before you.Those who despised youwill kiss your feet.They will call you the City of the lord,and Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
