Bible. Isaiah
23:060:010 And 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.
23:060:011 Therefore 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.
23:060:012 For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall
perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
23:060:013 The 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.
23:060:014 The 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.
23:060:015 Whereas thou has been forsaken and hated, so that no man went
through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of
many generations.
23:060:016 Thou 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.
23:060:017 For 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.
23:060:018 Violence 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.
23:060:019 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, and thy God thy
glory.
23:060:020 Thy 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.
23:060:021 Thy 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.
23:060:022 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong
nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time.
23:061:001 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath
anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent
me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the
captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are
bound;
