Thou shalt also suck the milk
of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou
shalt know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Re-
deemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. For brass I will bring
gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass,
and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace,
and thine exactors righteousness. Violence shall no more
be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy
borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy
gates Praise. The sun shall be no more thy light by day:
neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee:
but the Lord shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and
thy God thy glory. Thy sun shall no more go down;
neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the Lord shall
be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning
shall be ended. Thy people also shall be all righteous:
they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my
planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a
strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time
