19 The sun will no longer be your light by day,
    nor will the moon shine for illumination by night.[a]
The Lord will be your everlasting light;
    your God will be your glory.
20 Your sun will no longer set;
    your moon will no longer wane.
The Lord will be an everlasting light for you,
    and your days of mourning will be ended.
21 Your people will all be righteous;
    they will possess the land forever.
They are the shoot that I planted,
    the work of my hands, to glorify myself.
