Isaiah 60:1-63:14
New Living Translation
Future Glory for Jerusalem
60 “Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all to see.
For the glory of the Lord rises to shine on you.
2 Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth,
but the glory of the Lord rises and appears over you.
3 All nations will come to your light;
mighty kings will come to see your radiance.
4 “Look and see, for everyone is coming home!
Your sons are coming from distant lands;
your little daughters will be carried home.
5 Your eyes will shine,
and your heart will thrill with joy,
for merchants from around the world will come to you.
They will bring you the wealth of many lands.
6 Vast caravans of camels will converge on you,
the camels of Midian and Ephah.
The people of Sheba will bring gold and frankincense
and will come worshiping the Lord.
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 night
to receive the wealth of many lands.
The kings of the world will be led as captives
in a victory procession.
12 For the nations that refuse to serve you
will 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 tormentors
will come and bow before you.
Those who despised you
will kiss your feet.
They will call you the City of the Lord,
and Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 “Though you were once despised and hated,
with no one traveling through you,
I will make you beautiful forever,
a joy to all generations.
16 Powerful kings and mighty nations
will satisfy your every need,
as though you were a child
nursing at the breast of a queen.
You will know at last that I, the Lord,
am your Savior and your Redeemer,
the Mighty One of Israel.[a]
17 I will exchange your bronze for gold,
your iron for silver,
your wood for bronze,
and your stones for iron.
I will make peace your leader
and righteousness your ruler.
18 Violence will disappear from your land;
the desolation and destruction of war will end.
Salvation will surround you like city walls,
and praise will be on the lips of all who enter there.
19 “No longer will you need the sun to shine by day,
nor the moon to give its light by night,
for the Lord your God will be your everlasting light,
and your God will be your glory.
20 Your sun will never set;
your moon will not go down.
For the Lord will be your everlasting light.
Your days of mourning will come to an end.
21 All your people will be righteous.
They will possess their land forever,
for I will plant them there with my own hands
in order to bring myself glory.
22 The smallest family will become a thousand people,
and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation.
At the right time, I, the Lord, will make it happen.”
Good News for the Oppressed
61 The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me,
for the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor.
He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted
and to proclaim that captives will be released
and prisoners will be freed.[b]
2 He has sent me to tell those who mourn
that the time of the Lord’s favor has come,[c]
and with it, the day of God’s anger against their enemies.
3 To all who mourn in Israel,[d]
he will give a crown of beauty for ashes,
a joyous blessing instead of mourning,
festive praise instead of despair.
In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks
that the Lord has planted for his own glory.
4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins,
repairing cities destroyed long ago.
They will revive them,
though they have been deserted for many generations.
5 Foreigners will be your servants.
They will feed your flocks
and plow your fields
and tend your vineyards.
6 You will be called priests of the Lord,
ministers of our God.
You will feed on the treasures of the nations
and boast in their riches.
7 Instead of shame and dishonor,
you will enjoy a double share of honor.
You will possess a double portion of prosperity in your land,
and everlasting joy will be yours.
8 “For I, the Lord, love justice.
I hate robbery and wrongdoing.
I will faithfully reward my people for their suffering
and make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Their descendants will be recognized
and honored among the nations.
Everyone will realize that they are a people
the Lord has blessed.”
10 I am overwhelmed with joy in the Lord my God!
For he has dressed me with the clothing of salvation
and draped me in a robe of righteousness.
I am like a bridegroom dressed for his wedding
or a bride with her jewels.
11 The Sovereign Lord will show his justice to the nations of the world.
Everyone will praise him!
His righteousness will be like a garden in early spring,
with plants springing up everywhere.
Isaiah’s Prayer for Jerusalem
62 Because I love Zion,
I will not keep still.
Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem,
I cannot remain silent.
I will not stop praying for her
until her righteousness shines like the dawn,
and her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
2 The nations will see your righteousness.
World leaders will be blinded by your glory.
And you will be given a new name
by the Lord’s own mouth.
3 The Lord will hold you in his hand for all to see—
a splendid crown in the hand of God.
4 Never again will you be called “The Forsaken City”[e]
or “The Desolate Land.”[f]
Your new name will be “The City of God’s Delight”[g]
and “The Bride of God,”[h]
for the Lord delights in you
and will claim you as his bride.
5 Your children will commit themselves to you, O Jerusalem,
just as a young man commits himself to his bride.
Then God will rejoice over you
as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride.
6 O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen on your walls;
they will pray day and night, continually.
Take no rest, all you who pray to the Lord.
7 Give the Lord no rest until he completes his work,
until he makes Jerusalem the pride of the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn to Jerusalem by his own strength:
“I will never again hand you over to your enemies.
Never again will foreign warriors come
and take away your grain and new wine.
9 You raised the grain, and you will eat it,
praising the Lord.
Within the courtyards of the Temple,
you yourselves will drink the wine you have pressed.”
10 Go out through the gates!
Prepare the highway for my people to return!
Smooth out the road; pull out the boulders;
raise a flag for all the nations to see.
11 The Lord has sent this message to every land:
“Tell the people of Israel,[i]
‘Look, your Savior is coming.
See, he brings his reward with him as he comes.’”
12 They will be called “The Holy People”
and “The People Redeemed by the Lord.”
And Jerusalem will be known as “The Desirable Place”
and “The City No Longer Forsaken.”
Judgment against the Lord’s Enemies
63 Who is this who comes from Edom,
from the city of Bozrah,
with his clothing stained red?
Who is this in royal robes,
marching in his great strength?
“It is I, the Lord, announcing your salvation!
It is I, the Lord, who has the power to save!”
2 Why are your clothes so red,
as if you have been treading out grapes?
3 “I have been treading the winepress alone;
no one was there to help me.
In my anger I have trampled my enemies
as if they were grapes.
In my fury I have trampled my foes.
Their blood has stained my clothes.
4 For the time has come for me to avenge my people,
to ransom them from their oppressors.
5 I was amazed to see that no one intervened
to help the oppressed.
So I myself stepped in to save them with my strong arm,
and my wrath sustained me.
6 I crushed the nations in my anger
and made them stagger and fall to the ground,
spilling their blood upon the earth.”
Praise for Deliverance
7 I will tell of the Lord’s unfailing love.
I will praise the Lord for all he has done.
I will rejoice in his great goodness to Israel,
which he has granted according to his mercy and love.
8 He said, “They are my very own people.
Surely they will not betray me again.”
And he became their Savior.
9 In all their suffering he also suffered,
and he personally[j] rescued them.
In his love and mercy he redeemed them.
He lifted them up and carried them
through all the years.
10 But they rebelled against him
and grieved his Holy Spirit.
So he became their enemy
and fought against them.
11 Then they remembered those days of old
when Moses led his people out of Egypt.
They cried out, “Where is the one who brought Israel through the sea,
with Moses as their shepherd?
Where is the one who sent his Holy Spirit
to be among his people?
12 Where is the one whose power was displayed
when Moses lifted up his hand—
the one who divided the sea before them,
making himself famous forever?
13 Where is the one who led them through the bottom of the sea?
They were like fine stallions
racing through the desert, never stumbling.
14 As with cattle going down into a peaceful valley,
the Spirit of the Lord gave them rest.
You led your people, Lord,
and gained a magnificent reputation.”

The Glory of Zion
60 “Arise,(A) shine, for your light(B) has come,
and the glory(C) of the Lord rises upon you.
2 See, darkness(D) covers the earth
and thick darkness(E) is over the peoples,
but the Lord rises upon you
and his glory appears over you.
3 Nations(F) will come to your light,(G)
and kings(H) to the brightness of your dawn.
4 “Lift up your eyes and look about you:
All assemble(I) and come to you;
your sons come from afar,(J)
and your daughters(K) are carried on the hip.(L)
5 Then you will look and be radiant,(M)
your heart will throb and swell with joy;(N)
the wealth(O) on the seas will be brought to you,
to you the riches of the nations will come.
6 Herds of camels(P) will cover your land,
young camels of Midian(Q) and Ephah.(R)
And all from Sheba(S) will come,
bearing gold and incense(T)
and proclaiming the praise(U) of the Lord.
7 All Kedar’s(V) flocks will be gathered to you,
the rams of Nebaioth will serve you;
they will be accepted as offerings(W) on my altar,(X)
and I will adorn my glorious temple.(Y)
8 “Who are these(Z) that fly along like clouds,(AA)
like doves to their nests?
9 Surely the islands(AB) look to me;
in the lead are the ships of Tarshish,[a](AC)
bringing(AD) your children from afar,
with their silver and gold,(AE)
to the honor(AF) of the Lord your God,
the Holy One(AG) of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.(AH)
10 “Foreigners(AI) will rebuild your walls,
and their kings(AJ) will serve you.
Though in anger I struck you,
in favor(AK) I will show you compassion.(AL)
11 Your gates(AM) will always stand open,
they will never be shut, day or night,
so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations(AN)—
their kings(AO) led in triumphal procession.
12 For the nation or kingdom that will not serve(AP) you will perish;
it will be utterly ruined.(AQ)
13 “The glory of Lebanon(AR) will come to you,
the juniper, the fir and the cypress together,(AS)
to adorn my sanctuary;(AT)
and I will glorify the place for my feet.(AU)
14 The children of your oppressors(AV) will come bowing before you;
all who despise you will bow down(AW) at your feet
and will call you the City(AX) of the Lord,
Zion(AY) of the Holy One(AZ) of Israel.
15 “Although you have been forsaken(BA) and hated,
with no one traveling(BB) through,
I will make you the everlasting pride(BC)
and the joy(BD) of all generations.
16 You will drink the milk of nations
and be nursed(BE) at royal breasts.
Then you will know(BF) that I, the Lord, am your Savior,(BG)
your Redeemer,(BH) the Mighty One of Jacob.(BI)
17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold,(BJ)
and silver in place of iron.
Instead of wood I will bring you bronze,
and iron in place of stones.
I will make peace(BK) your governor
and well-being your ruler.(BL)
18 No longer will violence(BM) be heard in your land,
nor ruin or destruction(BN) within your borders,
but you will call your walls Salvation(BO)
and your gates Praise.(BP)
19 The 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,(BQ)
and your God will be your glory.(BR)
20 Your sun(BS) will never set again,
and your moon will wane no more;
the Lord will be your everlasting light,
and your days of sorrow(BT) will end.
21 Then all your people will be righteous(BU)
and they will possess(BV) the land forever.
They are the shoot I have planted,(BW)
the work of my hands,(BX)
for the display of my splendor.(BY)
22 The least of you will become a thousand,
the smallest a mighty nation.(BZ)
I am the Lord;
in its time I will do this swiftly.”(CA)
The Year of the Lord’s Favor
61 The Spirit(CB) of the Sovereign Lord(CC) is on me,
because the Lord has anointed(CD) me
to proclaim good news(CE) to the poor.(CF)
He has sent me to bind up(CG) the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom(CH) for the captives(CI)
and release from darkness for the prisoners,[b]
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor(CJ)
and the day of vengeance(CK) of our God,
to comfort(CL) all who mourn,(CM)
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown(CN) of beauty
instead of ashes,(CO)
the oil(CP) of joy
instead of mourning,(CQ)
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting(CR) of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.(CS)
4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins(CT)
and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
that have been devastated for generations.
5 Strangers(CU) will shepherd your flocks;
foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.
6 And you will be called priests(CV) of the Lord,
you will be named ministers of our God.
You will feed on the wealth(CW) of nations,
and in their riches you will boast.
7 Instead of your shame(CX)
you will receive a double(CY) portion,
and instead of disgrace
you will rejoice in your inheritance.
And so you will inherit(CZ) a double portion in your land,
and everlasting joy(DA) will be yours.
8 “For I, the Lord, love justice;(DB)
I hate robbery and wrongdoing.
In my faithfulness I will reward my people
and make an everlasting covenant(DC) with them.
9 Their descendants(DD) will be known among the nations
and their offspring among the peoples.
All who see them will acknowledge
that they are a people the Lord has blessed.”(DE)
10 I delight greatly in the Lord;
my soul rejoices(DF) in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,(DG)
as a bridegroom adorns his head(DH) like a priest,
and as a bride(DI) adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the soil makes the sprout come up
and a garden(DJ) causes seeds to grow,
so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness(DK)
and praise spring up before all nations.
Zion’s New Name
62 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent,(DL)
for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet,
till her vindication(DM) shines out like the dawn,(DN)
her salvation(DO) like a blazing torch.
2 The nations(DP) will see your vindication,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name(DQ)
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown(DR) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,(DS)
or name your land Desolate.(DT)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[c](DU)
and your land Beulah[d];
for the Lord will take delight(DV) in you,
and your land will be married.(DW)
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(DX) rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice(DY) over you.
6 I have posted watchmen(DZ) on your walls, Jerusalem;
they will never be silent day or night.
You who call on the Lord,
give yourselves no rest,(EA)
7 and give him no rest(EB) till he establishes Jerusalem
and makes her the praise(EC) of the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn(ED) by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain(EE)
as food for your enemies,
and never again will foreigners drink the new wine
for which you have toiled;
9 but those who harvest it will eat(EF) it
and praise the Lord,(EG)
and those who gather the grapes will drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.”(EH)
10 Pass through, pass through the gates!(EI)
Prepare the way for the people.
Build up, build up the highway!(EJ)
Remove the stones.
Raise a banner(EK) for the nations.
11 The Lord has made proclamation
to the ends of the earth:(EL)
“Say to Daughter Zion,(EM)
‘See, your Savior comes!(EN)
See, his reward is with him,
and his recompense accompanies him.’”(EO)
12 They will be called(EP) the Holy People,(EQ)
the Redeemed(ER) of the Lord;
and you will be called Sought After,
the City No Longer Deserted.(ES)
God’s Day of Vengeance and Redemption
63 Who is this coming from Edom,(ET)
from Bozrah,(EU) with his garments stained crimson?(EV)
Who is this, robed in splendor,
striding forward in the greatness of his strength?(EW)
“It is I, proclaiming victory,
mighty to save.”(EX)
2 Why are your garments red,
like those of one treading the winepress?(EY)
3 “I have trodden the winepress(EZ) alone;
from the nations no one was with me.
I trampled(FA) them in my anger
and trod them down in my wrath;(FB)
their blood spattered my garments,(FC)
and I stained all my clothing.
4 It was for me the day of vengeance;(FD)
the year for me to redeem had come.
5 I looked, but there was no one(FE) to help,
I was appalled that no one gave support;
so my own arm(FF) achieved salvation for me,
and my own wrath sustained me.(FG)
6 I trampled(FH) the nations in my anger;
in my wrath I made them drunk(FI)
and poured their blood(FJ) on the ground.”
Praise and Prayer
7 I will tell of the kindnesses(FK) of the Lord,
the deeds for which he is to be praised,
according to all the Lord has done for us—
yes, the many good things(FL)
he has done for Israel,
according to his compassion(FM) and many kindnesses.
8 He said, “Surely they are my people,(FN)
children who will be true to me”;
and so he became their Savior.(FO)
9 In all their distress he too was distressed,
and the angel(FP) of his presence(FQ) saved them.[e]
In his love and mercy he redeemed(FR) them;
he lifted them up and carried(FS) them
all the days of old.(FT)
10 Yet they rebelled(FU)
and grieved his Holy Spirit.(FV)
So he turned and became their enemy(FW)
and he himself fought(FX) against them.
11 Then his people recalled[f] the days of old,
the days of Moses and his people—
where is he who brought them through the sea,(FY)
with the shepherd of his flock?(FZ)
Where is he who set
his Holy Spirit(GA) among them,
12 who sent his glorious arm(GB) of power
to be at Moses’ right hand,
who divided the waters(GC) before them,
to gain for himself everlasting renown,(GD)
13 who led(GE) them through the depths?(GF)
Like a horse in open country,
they did not stumble;(GG)
14 like cattle that go down to the plain,
they were given rest(GH) by the Spirit of the Lord.
This is how you guided your people
to make for yourself a glorious name.
