Isaiah 60

Gen Z: Isaiah 60

1Rise up and shine, fam; your light's here, and God's glory is all over you.

2No cap, darkness is gonna cover the earth and people will be in the feels, but the Lord's gonna shine on you, and His glory's gonna be seen.

3The nations are gonna vibe with your light, and kings will be drawn to your glow-up.

4Look around, fam! Everyone's rolling in; your sons are coming from far away, and your daughters are gonna be right by your side.

5Then you'll see it all pop off, your heart's gonna be shook and expanded; 'cause the sea's gonna bring you mad blessings, and the nations will come through.

6A whole squad of camels is gonna cover you, with the dromedaries from Midian and Ephah; they’re bringing gold and incense, and gonna hype up the Lord.

7All the flocks from Kedar are gonna gather for you, the rams from Nebaioth will serve you; they’ll come up to my altar with good vibes, and I’ll flex on my glorious house.

8Who are these peeps flying in like clouds, and doves heading to their windows?

9For sure, the islands are gonna wait for me, and the ships from Tarshish are coming first to bring your sons from afar, with their silver and gold, all for the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, 'cause He’s hyped you up.

10The sons of strangers are gonna build up your walls, and their kings will serve you; I was mad at you before, but now I’m showing you mercy.

11So your gates will stay open all the time; they won’t shut day or night, so people can bring in the nations, and their kings will come through.

12Any nation that won’t vibe with you is gonna fade away; those nations will be totally wrecked.

13The glory of Lebanon’s coming to you, with the fir tree, pine tree, and boxwood to beautify my sanctuary; I’ll make my spot lit.

14The kids of those who dissed you will come crawling back; everyone who hated will bow at your feet, calling you The city of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

15You’ve been ghosted and hated, but I’m about to make you the ultimate flex, a joy for generations to come.

16You’ll be sipping the milk of the nations and kings; you’ll know I’m the Lord, your Savior and Redeemer, the goated One of Jacob.

17For brass, I’ll bring gold; for iron, silver; for wood, brass; for stones, iron; I’ll make your leaders bring peace and your enforcers be righteous.

18No more violence in your land, no waste or destruction in your borders; you’ll call your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.

19The sun won’t be your light anymore by day; the moon won’t shine for you; but the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.

20Your sun won’t set anymore; the moon won’t dip; the Lord will be your forever light, and your days of sadness will be over.

21Your people will be all about righteousness; they’ll inherit the land forever, the branch I planted, the work of my hands, so I can be glorified.

22A little one will become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation; I, the Lord, will make it happen in my time.

KJV: Isaiah 60

1Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

2For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

3And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

4Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.

5Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.

6The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the Lord.

7All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.

8Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

9Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring 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 thee.

10And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.

11Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.

12For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.

13The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.

14The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

15Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.

16Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

17For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine exactors righteousness.

18Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.

19The 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, and thy God thy glory.

20Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.

21Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

22A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time.
