Isaiah 60:9-11
Expanded Bible
9 ·People in faraway lands [L For the coastlands/or islands] ·are waiting [or look] for me.
The ·great trading ships [L ships of Tarshish; 2:16] will come first,
bringing your children from ·faraway lands [afar],
and with them silver and gold.
·This will honor [L …for the name of] the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel [1:4],
·who does wonderful things for you [L because he has glorified/beautified you].
10 “Jerusalem, foreigners will rebuild your walls,
and their kings will serve you.
·When I was angry [L In my wrath], I ·hurt [struck] you,
but now ·I want to be kind to you and comfort you [L in grace/favor I will have compassion/mercy on you].
11 Your gates will always be open;
they will not be closed day or night
so the nations can bring their wealth to you,
and their kings ·will be led to you [or leading the way; C either as captives or leading the procession of gifts].

9 Surely the islands(A) look to me;
in the lead are the ships of Tarshish,[a](B)
bringing(C) your children from afar,
with their silver and gold,(D)
to the honor(E) of the Lord your God,
the Holy One(F) of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.(G)
10 “Foreigners(H) will rebuild your walls,
and their kings(I) will serve you.
Though in anger I struck you,
in favor(J) I will show you compassion.(K)
11 Your gates(L) will always stand open,
they will never be shut, day or night,
so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations(M)—
their kings(N) led in triumphal procession.
