Isaiah 60 – Studienbibel

1 Arise6965, shine215; for thy light216 is come935, and the glory3519 of the LORD3068 is risen2224 upon thee.¹ 2 For, behold, the darkness2822 shall cover3680 the earth776, and gross darkness6205 the people3816: but the LORD3068 shall arise2224 upon thee, and his glory3519 shall be seen7200 upon thee. 3 And the Gentiles1471 shall come1980 to thy light216, and kings4428 to the brightness5051 of thy rising2225. 4 Lift up5375 thine eyes5869 round about5439, and see7200: all they gather themselves together6908, they come935 to thee: thy sons1121 shall come935 from far7350, and thy daughters1323 shall be nursed539 at thy side6654. 5 Then thou shalt see7200 3372, and flow together5102, and thine heart3824 shall fear6342, and be enlarged7337; because the abundance1995 of the sea3220 shall be converted2015 unto thee, the forces2428 of the Gentiles1471 shall come935 unto thee.²³ 6 The multitude8229 of camels1581 shall cover3680 thee, the dromedaries1070 of Midian4080 and Ephah5891; all they from Sheba7614 shall come935: they shall bring5375 gold2091 and incense3828; and they shall shew forth1319 the praises8416 of the LORD3068. 7 All the flocks6629 of Kedar6938 shall be gathered together6908 unto thee, the rams352 of Nebaioth5032 shall minister8334 unto thee: they shall come up5927 with acceptance7522 on mine altar4196, and I will glorify6286 the house1004 of my glory8597. 8 Who are these that fly5774 as a cloud5645, and as the doves3123 to their windows699?

9 Surely the isles339 shall wait6960 for me, and the ships591 of Tarshish8659 first7223, to bring935 thy sons1121 from far7350, their silver3701 and their gold2091 with them, unto the name8034 of the LORD3068 thy God430, and to the Holy One6918 of Israel3478, because he hath glorified6286 thee. 10 And the sons1121 of strangers5236 shall build up1129 thy walls2346, and their kings4428 shall minister8334 unto thee: for in my wrath7110 I smote5221 thee, but in my favour7522 have I had mercy7355 on thee. 11 Therefore thy gates8179 shall be open6605 continually8548; they shall not be shut5462 day3119 nor night3915; that men may bring935 unto thee the forces2428 of the Gentiles1471, and that their kings4428 may be brought5090.⁴ 12 For the nation1471 and kingdom4467 that will not serve5647 thee shall perish6; yea, those nations1471 shall be utterly2717 wasted2717. 13 The glory3519 of Lebanon3844 shall come935 unto thee, the fir tree1265, the pine tree8410, and the box8391 together3162, to beautify6286 the place4725 of my sanctuary4720; and I will make the place4725 of my feet7272 glorious3513. 14 The sons1121 also of them that afflicted6031 thee shall come1980 bending7817 unto thee; and all they that despised5006 thee shall bow themselves down7812 at the soles3709 of thy feet7272; and they shall call7121 thee, The city5892 of the LORD3068, The Zion6726 of the Holy One6918 of Israel3478.

15 Whereas8478 thou hast been forsaken5800 and hated8130, so that no man went through5674 thee, I will make7760 thee an eternal5769 excellency1347, a joy4885 of many1755 generations1755. 16 Thou shalt also suck3243 the milk2461 of the Gentiles1471, and shalt suck3243 the breast7699 of kings4428: and thou shalt know3045 that I the LORD3068 am thy Saviour3467 and thy Redeemer1350, the mighty One46 of Jacob3290. 17 For brass5178 I will bring935 gold2091, and for iron1270 I will bring935 silver3701, and for wood6086 brass5178, and for stones68 iron1270: I will also make7760 thy officers6486 peace7965, and thine exactors5065 righteousness6666. 18 Violence2555 shall no more be heard8085 in thy land776, wasting7701 nor destruction7667 within thy borders1366; but thou shalt call7121 thy walls2346 Salvation3444, and thy gates8179 Praise8416. 19 The sun8121 shall be no more thy light216 by day3119; neither for brightness5051 shall the moon3394 give light216 unto thee: but the LORD3068 shall be unto thee an everlasting5769 light215, and thy God430 thy glory8597. 20 Thy sun8121 shall no more go down935; neither shall thy moon3391 withdraw622 itself: for the LORD3068 shall be thine everlasting5769 light216, and the days3117 of thy mourning60 shall be ended7999. 21 Thy people5971 also shall be all righteous6662: they shall inherit3423 the land776 for ever5769, the branch5342 of my planting4302, the work4639 of my hands3027, that I may be glorified6286. 22 A little one6996 shall become a thousand505, and a small one6810 a strong6099 nation1471: I the LORD3068 will hasten2363 it in his time6256.
