The sun will no longer be your light by day, and the brightness of the moon will not shine on you. The Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendour.
Night will be no more; people will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will give them light, and they will reign for ever and ever.
The moon will be put to shame and the sun disgraced, because the Lord of Armies will reign as king on Mount Zion in Jerusalem, and he will display his glory in the presence of his elders.
The moonlight will be as bright as the sunlight, and the sunlight will be seven times brighter #– #like the light of seven days #– #on the day that the Lord bandages his people’s injuries and heals the wounds he inflicted.
You will winnow them and a wind will carry them away, a whirlwind will scatter them. But you will rejoice in the Lord; you will boast in the Holy One of Israel.
And the ransomed of the Lord will return and come to Zion with singing, crowned with unending joy. Joy and gladness will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee.
For look, I am raising my hand against them, and they will become plunder for their own servants. Then you will know that the Lord of Armies has sent me.
