11 Your gates will be open continually;day and night they won’t close,to bring to you the wealth of nations,and their kings led in procession.
12 The nation and the dynastythat won’t serve you will perish;such nations will be devastated.
13 Lebanon’s glory will come upon you,cypress, elm, and pine,to glorify the site of my sanctuary,and I will honor my royal footstool.
14 The children of your tormenters will come bending low to you;all who despised you will bow down at your feet.They will call you The Lord’s City,Zion, of the holy one of Israel.
15 Instead of being abandoned,hated, and forbidden,I will make you majestic forever,a joy for all generations.
16 You will suck the milk of nations,and nurse at royal breasts.You will know that I am the Lord, your saviorand your redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob.
17 Instead of bronze I will bring gold;instead of iron I will bring silver;instead of wood, bronze;and instead of stones, iron.I will make peace your governorand righteousness your taskmaster.
