Isaiah 60:15-17
Easy-to-Read Version
15 “People hated you.
You were left all alone with no one passing through.
But I will make you great from now on.
You will be happy forever and ever.
16 Nations will give you what you need,
like a child drinking milk from its mother.
But you will ‘drink’ riches from kings.
Then you will know that it is I, the Lord, who saves you.
You will know that I, the Great God of Jacob, protect you.
17 “You now have copper,
but I will bring you gold.
You now have iron,
but I will bring you silver.
I will change your wood into copper
and your rocks into iron.
I will change your punishment into peace.
And those who punished you will be replaced with those who are kind to you.
Isaiah 60:15-17
New International Version
15 “Although you have been forsaken(A) and hated,
with no one traveling(B) through,
I will make you the everlasting pride(C)
and the joy(D) of all generations.
16 You will drink the milk of nations
and be nursed(E) at royal breasts.
Then you will know(F) that I, the Lord, am your Savior,(G)
your Redeemer,(H) the Mighty One of Jacob.(I)
17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold,(J)
and silver in place of iron.
Instead of wood I will bring you bronze,
and iron in place of stones.
I will make peace(K) your governor
and well-being your ruler.(L)
