1 Arise! Shine! Your light has come,
2 Darkness now covers the earth,
3 Nations will come to your light,
4 “Look up, look around, and watch.
5 Then you will see this and rejoice,
6 “Many camels will cover your ⌞land⌟,
7 All of the flocks from Kedar will gather and come to you.
8 “Who are these people that fly by like clouds,
9 Certainly, the coastlands wait with hope for me.
10 “Foreigners will rebuild your walls,
11 Your gates will always be open.
12 Nations and kingdoms that do not serve you will be destroyed.
13 “Lebanon’s glory will come to you:
14 The descendants of those who oppress you will bow in front of you.
15 “You have been abandoned and hated; no one has passed through you.
16 You will drink milk from other nations
17 I will bring gold instead of bronze.
18 No longer will you hear about violence in your land
19 The sun will no longer be your light during the day,
20 Your sun will no longer go down,
21 Then all your people will be righteous,
22 The smallest of them will become a family.
