Isaiah 60:17-19

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁷ “You now have copper,
    but I will bring you gold.
You now have iron,
    but I will bring you silver.
I will change your wood into copper
    and your rocks into iron.
I will change your punishment into peace.
    And those who punished you will be replaced with those who are kind to you.
¹⁸ There will never again be news of violence in your country.
    People will never again attack your country and steal from you.
You will name your walls, ‘Salvation’
    and your gates, ‘Praise.’

¹⁹ “The sun will no longer be your light during the day.
    The light from the moon will no longer be your light at night.
The Lord will be your light forever.
    Your God will be your glory.
