Isaiah 60:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships [a]of Tarshish, as at the beginning, that they may bring thy sons from far, and their silver and their gold with them unto the Name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy one of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
10 And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their [b]Kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my mercy I had compassion on thee.
11 Therefore thy gates shall be open continually: neither day nor night shall they be shut, that men may bring unto thee the riches of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.

Isaiah 60:9-11
New International Version
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.
