New Testament

Yeshayah 60:12-22 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

12. For the Goy and Mamlachah that will not serve thee shall perish; yes, those Goyim shall be utterly ruined [T.N. Notice that an anti-Jerusalem, anti-Jewish sentiment among believers is a contradiction in terms here in this verse].

13. The kavod HaLevanon shall come unto thee, the juniper tree, the box tree, and the cypress together, to beautify the makom (place) of My Mikdash; and I will make the makom of My raglayim glorious.

14. The banim also of them that oppress thee shall come unto thee in submission; and all they that despised thee shall prostrate themselves down at the soles of thy raglayim; and they shall call thee, The Ir of Hashem, Tziyon of Kadosh Yisroel.

15. Whereas thou has been forsaken and hated, so that none passed through thee, I will make thee a Ga'on Olam (Everlasting Pride), a joy dor vador.

16. Thou shalt also drink the cholov Goyim, and shalt nurse at the breast of melachim; and thou shalt know that I Hashem am thy Moshia and thy Go'el, the Avir Ya'akov (Mighty One of Jacob)..

17. Instead of nechoshet I will bring zahav, and for barzel (iron) I will bring kesef, and for etzim (wood) nechoshet, and for avanim (stones) barzel (iron); I will also make thy pekudim shalom, and thine nogesim tzedakah.

18. Chamas shall no more be heard in thy land, shod nor shever within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy chomot Yeshuah (Salvation), and thy she'arim Tehillah (Praise).

19. The shemesh shall be no more thy ohr yomam; neither for brightness shall the yarei'ach give light unto thee; but Hashem shall be unto thee an Ohr Olam, and thy G-d thy tiferet.

20. Thy shemesh shall no more go down; neither shall thy yarei'ach wane; for Hashem shall be for thee an Ohr Olam, and the yamim of thy avelut shall be ended.

21. Thy people also shall be all of them tzaddikim; they shall inherit the Eretz l'olam, the Netzer [see Mt.2:23 OJBC] of My planting, the ma'aseh of My hands, that I may be glorified.

22. The katon shall become an elef, and the smallest a mighty nation; I Hashem will hasten it in its time.
