Messiah 10: For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth

Isaiah 60:2,3
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

This recitative continues the passage begun in the previous chorus.
