Isaiah 60:1-7

¹ Arise! Shine! Your light has come; the LORD’s glory has shone upon you. ² Though darkness covers the earth and gloom the nations, the LORD will shine upon you; God’s glory will appear over you. ³ Nations will come to your light and kings to your dawning radiance. ⁴ Lift 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. ⁵ Then 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. ⁶ Countless camels will cover your land, young camels from Midian and Ephah. They will all come from Sheba, carrying gold and incense, proclaiming the LORD’s praises. ⁷ All Kedar’s sheep will be gathered for you; rams from Nebaioth will be your offerings; they will be accepted on my altar, and I will glorify my splendid house.
