The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et ambulabunt gentes in lumine ejus : et reges terræ afferent gloriam suam et honorem in illam.
Greek New Testament (SBLGNT)
καὶ περιπατήσουσιν τὰ ἔθνη διὰ τοῦ φωτὸς αὐτῆς· καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς φέρουσιν τὴν δόξαν αὐτῶν εἰς αὐτήν·

Haydock's commentary

The kings of the earth shall bring their glory; the elect, of all states and conditions, shall now be exalted like kings, or rather infinitely above the glory that we can imagine of any kings in this world. (Witham)
