Isaiah 60:3-5

The Future Glory of Israel

3 d And nations shall come to your light,
and kings to the brightness of your rising.

4 e Lift up your eyes all around, and see;
they all gather together, they come to you;
f your sons shall come from afar,
and your daughters shall be carried on the hip.
 5 Then you shall see and g be radiant;
your heart shall thrill and exult, 1
because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you,
h the wealth of the nations shall come to you.
