Nations will come to your light,
    and kings before[a] your dawn.

“Lift up your eyes and look around:
    They all gather together, they come to you;
your sons will come from far away,
    and your daughters will be carried on the hip.”[b]
Then you will look and be radiant;
    your heart will swell with joy,[c]
because the abundance of the seas will be diverted to you,
    and the riches of the nations will come to you.
