1 ‘Arise, shine, for your light has come,and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
2 See, darkness covers the earthand thick darkness is over the peoples,but the Lord rises upon youand his glory appears over you.
3 Nations will come to your light,and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
4 ‘Lift up your eyes and look about you:all assemble and come to you;your sons come from afar,and your daughters are carried on the hip.
