All these have been gathered together; they have arrived before you. Your sons will arrive from far away, and your daughters will rise up from your side.

And all who detract you will reverence the path of your feet. And they will call you the City of the Lord, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Pro eo quod fuisti derelicta et odio habita, et non erat qui per te transiret : ponam te in superbiam sæculorum, gaudium in generationem et generationem :	15 For though you were forsaken, and held in hatred, and there was no one who would pass near you, I will establish you as an everlasting glory, as a gladness from generation to generation.
