ARISE, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
2 Tarira, rima rakafukidza nyika uye rima guru riri pamusoro pavanhu, asi Jehovha anobuda pamusoro pako uye kubwinya kwake kunoratidzwa pamusoro pako.

Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.
