Isaiah 60:1-5

Common English Bible

Jerusalem’s coming radiance

60 Arise! Shine! Your light has come;
    the Lord’s glory has shone upon you.
²Though darkness covers the earth
    and gloom the nations,
    the Lord will shine upon you;
    God’s glory will appear over you.
³Nations will come to your light
    and kings to your dawning radiance.

⁴Lift up your eyes and look all around:
    they are all gathered; they have come to you.
Your sons will come from far away,
    and your daughters on caregivers’ hips.
⁵Then you will see and be radiant;
    your heart will tremble and open wide,
    because the sea’s abundance will be turned over to you;
    the nations’ wealth will come to you.
