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.
18 Violence will no longer resound throughout your land,nor devastation or destruction within your borders.You will call your walls Salvation,and your gates Praise.
19 The sun will no longer be your light by day,nor will the moon shine for illumination by night.The Lord will be your everlasting light;your God will be your glory.
