Isaiah 60 (WEBP)

[1] “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and Yahweh’s glory has risen on you!
[2] For behold, darkness will cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but Yahweh will arise on you, and his glory shall be seen on you.
[3] Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.
[4] “Lift up your eyes all around, and see: they all gather themselves together. They come to you. Your sons will come from far away, and your daughters will be carried in arms.
[5] Then you shall see and be radiant, and your heart will thrill and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea will be turned to you. The wealth of the nations will come to you.
[6] A multitude of camels will cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah. All from Sheba will come. They will bring gold and frankincense, and will proclaim the praises of Yahweh.
[7] All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered together to you. The rams of Nebaioth will serve you. They will be accepted as offerings on my altar; and I will beautify my glorious house.
[8] “Who are these who fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?
[9] Surely the islands will wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring your sons from far away, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of Yahweh your God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.
[10] “Foreigners will build up your walls, and their kings will serve you; for in my wrath I struck you, but in my favor I have had mercy on you.
[11] Your gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night, that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations, and their kings led captive.
[12] For that nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yes, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
[13] “The glory of Lebanon shall come to you, the cypress tree, the pine, and the box tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
[14] The sons of those who afflicted you will come bowing to you; and all those who despised you will bow themselves down at the soles of your feet. They will call you Yahweh’s City, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
[15] “Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no one passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
[16] You will also drink the milk of the nations, and will nurse from royal breasts. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
[17] For bronze I will bring gold; for iron I will bring silver; for wood, bronze, and for stones, iron. I will also make peace your governor, and righteousness your ruler.
[18] Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor desolation or destruction within your borders; but you will call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise.
[19] The sun will be no more your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon give light to you, but Yahweh will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.
[20] Your sun will not go down any more, nor will your moon withdraw itself; for Yahweh will be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning will end.
[21] Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
[22] The little one will become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation. I, Yahweh, will do this quickly in its time.”

Isaiah 60 (BYZ)

[1] φωτιζου φωτιζου ιερουσαλημ ηκει γαρ σου το φως και η δοξα κυριου επι σε ανατεταλκεν
[2] ιδου σκοτος και γνοφος καλυψει γην επ εθνη επι δε σε φανησεται κυριος και η δοξα αυτου επι σε οφθησεται
[3] και πορευσονται βασιλεις τω φωτι σου και εθνη τη λαμπροτητι σου
[4] αρον κυκλω τους οφθαλμους σου και ιδε συνηγμενα τα τεκνα σου ιδου ηκασιν παντες οι υιοι σου μακροθεν και αι θυγατερες σου επ ωμων αρθησονται
[5] τοτε οψη και φοβηθηση και εκστηση τη καρδια οτι μεταβαλει εις σε πλουτος θαλασσης και εθνων και λαων και ηξουσιν σοι
[6] αγελαι καμηλων και καλυψουσιν σε καμηλοι μαδιαμ και γαιφα παντες εκ σαβα ηξουσιν φεροντες χρυσιον και λιβανον οισουσιν και το σωτηριον κυριου ευαγγελιουνται
[7] και παντα τα προβατα κηδαρ συναχθησονται σοι και κριοι ναβαιωθ ηξουσιν σοι και ανενεχθησεται δεκτα επι το θυσιαστηριον μου και ο οικος της προσευχης μου δοξασθησεται
[8] τινες οιδε ως νεφελαι πετανται και ως περιστεραι συν νεοσσοις
[9] εμε νησοι υπεμειναν και πλοια θαρσις εν πρωτοις αγαγειν τα τεκνα σου μακροθεν και τον αργυρον και τον χρυσον μετ αυτων δια το ονομα κυριου το αγιον και δια το τον αγιον του ισραηλ ενδοξον ειναι
[10] και οικοδομησουσιν αλλογενεις τα τειχη σου και οι βασιλεις αυτων παραστησονται σοι δια γαρ οργην μου επαταξα σε και δια ελεον ηγαπησα σε
[11] και ανοιχθησονται αι πυλαι σου δια παντος ημερας και νυκτος ου κλεισθησονται εισαγαγειν προς σε δυναμιν εθνων και βασιλεις αγομενους
[12] τα γαρ εθνη και οι βασιλεις οιτινες ου δουλευσουσιν σοι απολουνται και τα εθνη ερημια ερημωθησονται
[13] και η δοξα του λιβανου προς σε ηξει εν κυπαρισσω και πευκη και κεδρω αμα δοξασαι τον τοπον τον αγιον μου
[14] και πορευσονται προς σε δεδοικοτες υιοι ταπεινωσαντων σε και παροξυναντων σε και κληθηση πολις κυριου σιων αγιου ισραηλ
[15] δια το γεγενησθαι σε εγκαταλελειμμενην και μεμισημενην και ουκ ην ο βοηθων και θησω σε αγαλλιαμα αιωνιον ευφροσυνην γενεων γενεαις
[16] και θηλασεις γαλα εθνων και πλουτον βασιλεων φαγεσαι και γνωση οτι εγω κυριος ο σωζων σε και εξαιρουμενος σε θεος ισραηλ
[17] και αντι χαλκου οισω σοι χρυσιον αντι δε σιδηρου οισω σοι αργυριον αντι δε ξυλων οισω σοι χαλκον αντι δε λιθων σιδηρον και δωσω τους αρχοντας σου εν ειρηνη και τους επισκοπους σου εν δικαιοσυνη
[18] και ουκ ακουσθησεται ετι αδικια εν τη γη σου ουδε συντριμμα ουδε ταλαιπωρια εν τοις οριοις σου αλλα κληθησεται σωτηριον τα τειχη σου και αι πυλαι σου γλυμμα
[19] και ουκ εσται σοι ο ηλιος εις φως ημερας ουδε ανατολη σεληνης φωτιει σοι την νυκτα αλλ εσται σοι κυριος φως αιωνιον και ο θεος δοξα σου
[20] ου γαρ δυσεται ο ηλιος σοι και η σεληνη σοι ουκ εκλειψει εσται γαρ κυριος σοι φως αιωνιον και αναπληρωθησονται αι ημεραι του πενθους σου
[21] και ο λαος σου πας δικαιος και δι αιωνος κληρονομησουσιν την γην φυλασσων το φυτευμα εργα χειρων αυτου εις δοξαν
[22] ο ολιγοστος εσται εις χιλιαδας και ο ελαχιστος εις εθνος μεγα εγω κυριος κατα καιρον συναξω αυτους
