Isaiah 60:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
60 3 The Gentiles shall come to the knowledge of the Gospel. 8 They shall come to the Church in abundance. 16 They shall have abundance though they suffer for a time.
1 Arise, O Jerusalem; be bright, for thy [a]light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
2 For behold, darkness shall cover the [b]earth, and gross darkness the people; but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 And the Gentiles shall walk in [c]thy light, and Kings at the brightness of thy rising up.
