Isaiah 60:3-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 Nations shall walk by your light,
kings by the radiance of your dawning.(A)
The Nations Come to Zion
4 Raise your eyes and look about;
they all gather and come to you—
Your sons from afar,
your daughters in the arms of their nurses.(B)
5 Then you shall see and be radiant,
your heart shall throb and overflow.
For the riches of the sea shall be poured out before you,
the wealth of nations shall come to you.
6 Caravans of camels shall cover you,
dromedaries of Midian and Ephah;
All from Sheba shall come
bearing gold and frankincense,
and heralding the praises of the Lord.
7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered for you,
the rams of Nebaioth shall serve your needs;
They will be acceptable offerings on my altar,
and I will glorify my glorious house.
8 Who are these that fly along like a cloud,
like doves to their cotes?
9 The vessels of the coastlands are gathering,
with the ships of Tarshish in the lead,
To bring your children from afar,
their silver and gold with them—
For the name of the Lord, your God,
for the Holy One of Israel who has glorified you.
Honor and Service for Zion[a]
10 Foreigners shall rebuild your walls,
their kings shall minister to you;
Though in my wrath I struck you,
yet in my good will I have shown you mercy.(C)
Isaiah 60:3-10

4 “Lift up your eyes and look about you:
All assemble(D) and come to you;
your sons come from afar,(E)
and your daughters(F) are carried on the hip.(G)
5 Then you will look and be radiant,(H)
your heart will throb and swell with joy;(I)
the wealth(J) on the seas will be brought to you,
to you the riches of the nations will come.
6 Herds of camels(K) will cover your land,
young camels of Midian(L) and Ephah.(M)
And all from Sheba(N) will come,
bearing gold and incense(O)
and proclaiming the praise(P) of the Lord.
7 All Kedar’s(Q) flocks will be gathered to you,
the rams of Nebaioth will serve you;
they will be accepted as offerings(R) on my altar,(S)
and I will adorn my glorious temple.(T)
8 “Who are these(U) that fly along like clouds,(V)
like doves to their nests?
9 Surely the islands(W) look to me;
in the lead are the ships of Tarshish,[a](X)
bringing(Y) your children from afar,
with their silver and gold,(Z)
to the honor(AA) of the Lord your God,
the Holy One(AB) of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.(AC)
