and your daughters shall be carried at your side.
5#Isa 61:6; 23:18 Then you shall see and be radiant,

and as the doves to their roosts?
9#Isa 2:16; 55:5 Surely the coastlands shall wait for Me,

because He has glorified you.

and those nations shall be utterly destroyed.
13#Isa 35:2; 1Ch 28:2 The glory of Lebanon shall come to you,
the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box tree together,
to beautify the place of My sanctuary;
and I will make the place of My feet glorious.
14#Isa 49:23; Rev 3:9 The sons also of those who afflicted you shall come bowing before you,
and all those who despised you shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet;
and they shall call you, The City of the Lord,
the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15#Isa 65:18; Jer 30:17 Whereas you have been forsaken
and hated so that no man went through you,
I will make you an eternal excellency,
a joy of many generations.
16#Isa 49:23; 66:11–12 You shall also suck the milk of the nations
and suck the breast of kings;
then you shall know that I, the Lord, am your Savior
and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
17Instead of bronze I will bring gold,
and instead of iron I will bring silver;
and instead of wood, bronze;
and instead of stones, iron.
I will also make your officers peace
and your exactors righteousness.
18#Isa 26:1; 11:9 Violence shall no more be heard in your land,
nor devastation or destruction within your borders;
but you shall call your walls Salvation
and your gates Praise.
