Isaiah 60
KJV with Strongs (1611 / 1769)
✦Strong's Interlinear
1
Arise{(H8798)}, shine{(H8798)}; for thy light is come{(H8804)}, and the glory of the LORD is risen{(H8804)} upon thee.
2
For, behold, the darkness shall cover{(H8762)} the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise{(H8799)} upon thee, and his glory shall be seen{(H8735)} upon thee.
3
And the Gentiles shall come{(H8804)} to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4
Lift up{(H8798)} thine eyes round about, and see{(H8798)}: all they gather themselves together{(H8738)}, they come{(H8804)} to thee: thy sons shall come{(H8799)} from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed{(H8735)} at thy side.
5
Then thou shalt see{(H8799)}{(H8675)}{(H8799)}, and flow together{(H8804)}, and thine heart shall fear{(H8804)}, and be enlarged{(H8804)}; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted{(H8735)} unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come{(H8799)} unto thee.
6
The multitude of camels shall cover{(H8762)} thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come{(H8799)}: they shall bring{(H8799)} gold and incense; and they shall shew forth{(H8762)} the praises of the LORD.
7
All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together{(H8735)} unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister{(H8762)} unto thee: they shall come up{(H8799)} with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify{(H8762)} the house of my glory.
8
Who are these that fly{(H8799)} as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?
9
Surely the isles shall wait{(H8762)} for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring{(H8687)} thy sons from far, 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{(H8765)} thee.
10
And the sons of strangers shall build up{(H8804)} thy walls, and their kings shall minister{(H8762)} unto thee: for in my wrath I smote{(H8689)} thee, but in my favour have I had mercy{(H8765)} on thee.
11
Therefore thy gates shall be open{(H8765)} continually; they shall not be shut{(H8735)} day nor night; that men may bring{(H8687)} unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought{(H8803)}.
12
For the nation and kingdom that will not serve{(H8799)} thee shall perish{(H8799)}; yea, those nations shall be utterly{(H8800)} wasted{(H8799)}.
13
The glory of Lebanon shall come{(H8799)} unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify{(H8763)} the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious{(H8762)}.
14
The sons also of them that afflicted{(H8764)} thee shall come{(H8804)} bending{(H8800)} unto thee; and all they that despised{(H8764)} thee shall bow themselves down{(H8694)} at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call{(H8804)} thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15
Whereas thou hast been forsaken{(H8803)} and hated{(H8803)}, so that no man went through{(H8802)} thee, I will make{(H8804)} thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
16
Thou shalt also suck{(H8804)} the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck{(H8799)} the breast of kings: and thou shalt know{(H8804)} that I the LORD am thy Saviour{(H8688)} and thy Redeemer{(H8802)}, the mighty One of Jacob.
17
For brass I will bring{(H8686)} gold, and for iron I will bring{(H8686)} silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make{(H8804)} thy officers peace, and thine exactors{(H8802)} righteousness.
18
Violence shall no more be heard{(H8735)} in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call{(H8804)} thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
19
The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light{(H8686)}, and thy God thy glory.
20
Thy sun shall no more go down{(H8799)}; neither shall thy moon withdraw{(H8735)} itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended{(H8804)}.
21
Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit{(H8799)} the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified{(H8692)}.
22
A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten{(H8686)} it in his time.
