Who are these that fly like a cloud,
    and (A)like doves to their windows?
For (B)the coastlands shall hope for me,
    (C)the ships of Tarshish first,
(D)to bring your children from afar,
    their silver and gold with them,
for the name of the Lord your God,
    and for the Holy One of Israel,
    because (E)he has made you beautiful.
10 (F)Foreigners shall build up your walls,
    and (G)their kings shall minister to you;
for in my wrath I struck you,
    but in my favour I have had mercy on you.
11 (H)Your gates shall be open continually;
    day and night they shall not be shut,
(I)that people may bring to you the wealth of the nations,
    with their kings led in procession.
12 (J)For the nation and kingdom
    that will not serve you shall perish;
    those nations shall be utterly laid waste.
13 (K)The glory of Lebanon shall come to you,
    the cypress, the plane, and (L)the pine,
to beautify the place of my sanctuary,
    and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
