1 "People of Jerusalem, get up. Shine, because your light has come. My glory will shine on you.
2 Darkness covers the earth. Thick darkness spreads over the nations. But I will rise and shine on you. My glory will appear over you.
3 Nations will come to your light. Kings will come to the brightness of your new day.
4 "Look up. Look all around you. All of your people are getting together to come back to you. Your sons will come from far away. Your daughters will be carried like little children.
5 Then your face will glow with joy. Your heart will beat fast because you are so happy. Wealth from across the ocean will be brought to you. The riches of the nations will come to you.
