Isaias 60:9
For, the islands wait for me, and the ships of the sea in the beginning: that I may bring thy sons from afar: their silver, and their gold with them, to the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Me enim insulæ exspectant, et naves maris in principio, ut adducam filios tuos de longe ; argentum eorum, et aurum eorum cum eis, nomini Domini Dei tui, et Sancto Israël, quia glorificavit te.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἐμὲ αἱ νῆσοι ὑπέμειναν καὶ πλοῖα Θαρσεὶς ἐν πρώτοις, ἀγαγεῖν τὰ τέκνα σου μακρόθεν καὶ τὸν ἄργυρον καὶ τὸν χρυσὸν αὐτῶν μετ᾽ αὐτῶν, καὶ τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου τὸ ἅγιον, καὶ διὰ τὸ τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἔνδοξον εἶναι.
- Hebrew (WLC)

Haydock's commentary
Afar. All nations shall receive the gospel. Many made presents to the temple, after the return of the Jews. (Calmet)
The islands, Great Britain, &c., embrace the faith. (Tertullian; Origen; Ven. Bede; St. Chrysostom, &c.) (Worthington)
