Isaiah 60:8

“Molayag ang mga barko nga daw sa mga panganod nga naglupad, ug daw sa mga salampati nga nagpadulong sa ilang mga salag. Kini nga mga barko alang sa mga nagpuyo sa mga isla nga naglaom sa Ginoo. Pangunahan sila sa mga barko gikan sa Tarshish sa pagdala sa imong katawhan pabalik kanimo gikan sa layong mga dapit. Magdala usab silag mga bulawan ug mga pilak alang sa Ginoo nga imong Dios, ang Balaang Dios sa Israel, kay gipasidunggan ka niya.”
