Isaiah
Isaiah 60:11–13
11Your gates will always stand open;
they will never be shut, day or night,
so that the wealth of the nations may be brought into you,
with their kings being led in procession.
12For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish;
it will be utterly destroyed.
13The glory of Lebanon will come to you—
its cypress,c elm, and boxwood together—
to adorn the place of My sanctuary,
and I will glorify the place of My feet.
