15 Whereas you have been forsaken and hated so that no man passed through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. 16 You shall also gain the wealth of the Gentiles, and shall obtain the wealth of kings; and you shall know that I the LORD am your Saviour and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. 17 Instead of brass I will bring gold, and instead of iron I will bring silver, and instead of wood, brass, and instead of stones, iron; I will also make your officers peace and your rulers righteousness. 18 Violence shall no more be heard in your land, nor spoil and destruction within your borders; and they shall call your walls Salvation and your gates Praise. 19 The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to you; for the LORD shall be to you an everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended. 21 ( 60:20)All of your righteous people shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of my planting, the work of my hands shall be glorified. 22 ( 60:21)The smallest one shall become thousands, and the least one a strong nation; I the LORD will hasten it in its time.
