Isaiah 60:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 What is that sailing by
like clouds
or like doves flying home?
9 On those distant islands
your people are waiting
for me, the Lord.[a]
Seagoing ships[b] lead the way
to bring them home
with their silver and gold.
I, the holy Lord God of Israel,
do this to honor your people,
so they will honor me.
Jerusalem Will Be Rebuilt
The Lord said:
10 Jerusalem, your city walls
will be rebuilt by foreigners;
their rulers will become
your slaves.
I punished you in my anger;
now I will be kind
and treat you with mercy.
Isaiah 60:8-10
New International Version
8 “Who are these(A) that fly along like clouds,(B)
like doves to their nests?
9 Surely the islands(C) look to me;
in the lead are the ships of Tarshish,[a](D)
bringing(E) your children from afar,
with their silver and gold,(F)
to the honor(G) of the Lord your God,
the Holy One(H) of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.(I)
