Yesaya 60:5

60:5 Then you will look and smile, ³ 

you will be excited and your heart will swell with pride. ⁴ 

For the riches of distant lands ⁵  will belong to you

and the wealth of nations will come to you.

[9:28]  ¹ tn Heb “went.”

[9:28]  ² tn The Hebrew term כִּכָּר (kikkar, “circle”) refers generally to something that is round. When used of metals it can refer to a disk-shaped weight made of the metal or to a standard unit of weight, generally regarded as a talent. Since the accepted weight for a talent of metal is about 75 pounds, this would have amounted to about 31,500 pounds of gold (cf. NCV); CEV, NLT “sixteen tons”; TEV “more than 14,000 kilogrammes.”

[60:5]  ³ tn Or “shine,” or “be radiant” (NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV).

[60:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “and it will tremble and be wide, your heart.”

[60:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “the wealth of the sea,” i.e., wealth that is transported from distant lands via the sea.
