Isaiah 59:15-60:22

English Standard Version

¹⁵Truth is lacking,
and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.

The Lord saw it, and it displeased him^[a]
    that there was no justice.
¹⁶^(A)He saw that there was no man,
    and wondered that there was no one to intercede;
then his own arm brought him salvation,
    and his righteousness upheld him.
¹⁷^(B)He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
    and a helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,
    and wrapped himself in ^(C)zeal as a cloak.
¹⁸^(D)According to their deeds, so will he repay,
    wrath to his adversaries, repayment to his enemies;
    ^(E)to the coastlands he will render repayment.
¹⁹^(F)So they shall fear the name of the Lord from the west,
    and his glory from the rising of the sun;
^(G)for he will come like a rushing stream,^[b]
    which the wind of the Lord drives.

²⁰^(H)“And ^(I)a Redeemer will come to Zion,
to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” declares the Lord.

²¹“And as for me, ^(J)this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord: “My Spirit that is upon you, ^(K)and my words that I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your offspring, or out of the mouth of your children's offspring,” says the Lord, “from this time forth and forevermore.”

The Future Glory of Israel

60 ^(L)Arise, shine, for your light has come,
    and ^(M)the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
²For behold, darkness shall cover the earth,
    and thick darkness the peoples;
but the Lord will arise upon you,
    and his glory will be seen upon you.
³^(N)And nations shall come to your light,
    and kings to the brightness of your rising.

⁴^(O)Lift up your eyes all around, and see;
    they all gather together, they come to you;
^(P)your sons shall come from afar,
    and your daughters shall be carried on the hip.
⁵Then you shall see and ^(Q)be radiant;
    your heart shall thrill and exult,^[c]
because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you,
    ^(R)the wealth of the nations shall come to you.
⁶A multitude of camels shall cover you,
    the young camels of ^(S)Midian and ^(T)Ephah;
    all those from ^(U)Sheba shall come.
^(V)They shall bring gold and frankincense,
    and shall bring good news, the praises of the Lord.
⁷All the flocks of ^(W)Kedar shall be gathered to you;
    the rams of ^(X)Nebaioth shall minister to you;
^(Y)they shall come up with acceptance on my altar,
    ^(Z)and I will beautify my beautiful house.

⁸Who are these that fly like a cloud,
    and ^(AA)like doves to their windows?
⁹For ^(AB)the coastlands shall hope for me,
    ^(AC)the ships of Tarshish first,
^(AD)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 ^(AE)he has made you beautiful.

¹⁰^(AF)Foreigners shall build up your walls,
    and ^(AG)their kings shall minister to you;
for in my wrath I struck you,
    but in my favor I have had mercy on you.
¹¹^(AH)Your gates shall be open continually;
    day and night they shall not be shut,
^(AI)that people may bring to you the wealth of the nations,
    with their kings led in procession.
¹²^(AJ)For the nation and kingdom
    that will not serve you shall perish;
    those nations shall be utterly laid waste.
¹³^(AK)The glory of Lebanon shall come to you,
    the cypress, the plane, and ^(AL)the pine,
to beautify the place of my sanctuary,
    and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
¹⁴^(AM)The sons of those who afflicted you
    shall come bending low to you,
^(AN)and all who despised you
    shall bow down at your feet;
^(AO)they shall call you the City of the Lord,
    the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

¹⁵^(AP)Whereas you have been forsaken and hated,
    with no one passing through,
^(AQ)I will make you majestic forever,
    a joy from age to age.
¹⁶^(AR)You shall suck the milk of nations;
    you shall nurse at the breast of kings;
and you shall know that ^(AS)I, the Lord, am your Savior
    and your Redeemer, ^(AT)the Mighty One of Jacob.

¹⁷Instead of bronze I will bring gold,
    and instead of iron I will bring silver;
instead of wood, bronze,
    instead of stones, iron.
I will make your overseers peace
    ^(AU)and your taskmasters righteousness.
¹⁸^(AV)Violence shall no more be heard in your land,
    devastation or destruction within your borders;
^(AW)you shall call your walls Salvation,
    and your gates Praise.

¹⁹^(AX)The sun shall be no more
    your light by day,
nor for brightness shall the moon
    give you light;^[d]
but the Lord will be your everlasting light,
    and your God will be your glory.^[e]
²⁰Your sun shall no more go down,
    nor your moon withdraw itself;
for the Lord will be your everlasting light,
    and ^(AY)your days of mourning shall be ended.
²¹^(AZ)Your people shall all be righteous;
    ^(BA)they shall possess the land forever,
^(BB)the branch of my planting, the work of my hands,
    that I might be glorified.^[f]
²²^(BC)The least one shall become a clan,
    and the smallest one a mighty nation;
^(BD)I am the Lord;
    in its time I will hasten it.

New International Version

¹⁵Truth^(A) is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.

The Lord looked and was displeased
    that there was no justice.^(B)
¹⁶He saw that there was no one,^(C)
    he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;^(D)
so his own arm achieved salvation^(E) for him,
    and his own righteousness^(F) sustained him.
¹⁷He put on righteousness as his breastplate,^(G)
    and the helmet^(H) of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments^(I) of vengeance^(J)
    and wrapped himself in zeal^(K) as in a cloak.
¹⁸According to what they have done,
    so will he repay^(L)
wrath to his enemies
    and retribution to his foes;
    he will repay the islands^(M) their due.
¹⁹From the west,^(N) people will fear the name of the Lord,
    and from the rising of the sun,^(O) they will revere his glory.^(P)
For he will come like a pent-up flood
    that the breath^(Q) of the Lord drives along.^[a]

²⁰“The Redeemer^(R) will come to Zion,^(S)
to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,”^(T)
declares the Lord.

²¹“As for me, this is my covenant^(U) with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit,^(V) who is on you, will not depart from you,^(W) and my words that I have put in your mouth^(X) will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.

The Glory of Zion

60 “Arise,^(Y) shine, for your light^(Z) has come,
    and the glory^(AA) of the Lord rises upon you.
²See, darkness^(AB) covers the earth
    and thick darkness^(AC) is over the peoples,
but the Lord rises upon you
    and his glory appears over you.
³Nations^(AD) will come to your light,^(AE)
    and kings^(AF) to the brightness of your dawn.

your sons come from afar,^(AH)

⁵Then you will look and be radiant,^(AK)
    your heart will throb and swell with joy;^(AL)
the wealth^(AM) on the seas will be brought to you,
    to you the riches of the nations will come.
⁶Herds of camels^(AN) will cover your land,
    young camels of Midian^(AO) and Ephah.^(AP)
And all from Sheba^(AQ) will come,
    bearing gold and incense^(AR)
    and proclaiming the praise^(AS) of the Lord.
⁷All Kedar’s^(AT) flocks will be gathered to you,

they will be accepted as offerings^(AU) on my altar,^(AV)

⁸“Who are these^(AX) that fly along like clouds,^(AY)

¹⁰“Foreigners^(BG) will rebuild your walls,

Though in anger I struck you,
    in favor^(BI) I will show you compassion.^(BJ)
¹¹Your gates^(BK) will always stand open,
    they will never be shut, day or night,
so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations^(BL)—
    their kings^(BM) led in triumphal procession.
¹²For the nation or kingdom that will not serve^(BN) you will perish;

¹³“The glory of Lebanon^(BP) will come to you,
    the juniper, the fir and the cypress together,^(BQ)

¹⁴The children of your oppressors^(BT) will come bowing before you;
    all who despise you will bow down^(BU) at your feet

    Zion^(BW) of the Holy One^(BX) of Israel.

¹⁵“Although you have been forsaken^(BY) and hated,
    with no one traveling^(BZ) through,

I will make peace^(CI) your governor

¹⁸No longer will violence^(CK) be heard in your land,
    nor ruin or destruction^(CL) within your borders,
but you will call your walls Salvation^(CM)
    and your gates Praise.^(CN)
¹⁹The sun will no more be your light by day,
    nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you,
for the Lord will be your everlasting light,^(CO)
    and your God will be your glory.^(CP)
²⁰Your sun^(CQ) will never set again,

the Lord will be your everlasting light,

²¹Then all your people will be righteous^(CS)

They are the shoot I have planted,^(CU)
    the work of my hands,^(CV)
    for the display of my splendor.^(CW)
²²The least of you will become a thousand,

I am the Lord;
