Isaiah 60:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Then thou shalt see and shine: thine heart shall be astonied [a]and enlarged, because the multitude of the sea shall be converted unto thee, and the riches of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
6 The [b]multitude of camels shall cover thee: and the dromedaries of Midian and of Ephah: all they of Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense, and show forth the praises of the Lord.
7 All the sheep of [c]Kedar shall be gathered unto thee: the rams of Nebajoth shall serve thee: they shall come up to be accepted upon mine [d]altar: and I will beautify the house of my glory.
