Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all [a]these are gathered, and come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nourished at thy side.

Then thou shalt see and shine: thine heart shall be astonied [b]and enlarged, because the multitude of the sea shall be converted unto thee, and the riches of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.

The [c]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.
