Isaiah 60:9-11
The Voice
9 Breezy coastlands will wait expectantly for Me; the ships of Tarshish arrive first
to bring your children back from distant lands
Carrying in their holds the silver and gold—
to honor the name of the Eternal your God,
The Holy One of Israel who has made you beautiful.
10 People will come from different countries and different cultures
to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls and make her strong again.
Their kings will help you however you need.
Eternal One: I punished you because I was furious with you,
reduced you to little on account of your persistent wrongdoing;
But I will restore you, reclaim you, and rebuild you because I cannot help but love you.
11 Now your gates will stay open to a constant stream of gifts;
all day and night they will not be shut
As the wealth of nations is brought to you
with their kings leading the processions.
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.
