RBT Hebrew Literal:

ἐπιφαύσει - Shine Out (of a Luminary)

Through which he is speaking, Awake, the one who is sleeping! and Stand up from out the Dead Ones and the Anointed One will shine out to yourself!

shining upon vs. shining out

The verb ἐπιφαύσκω is a rare poetic/philosophical term that carries the sense of light breaking forth, dawn appearing, or illumination coming from beyond.

Job 25:5 – “The moon does not shine” (οὐδὲ σελήνη ἐπιφαύσκει, LXX).
Job 31:26 – “If I looked at the sun when he shone” (ὅταν ἐπιφαύσκῃ, LXX)

Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
Wherefore he says, Awake, who sleeping, and arise from the dead, and Christ will enlighten thee.

LITV Translation:
Because of this, He says, Arise, sleeping ones and stand up out of the dead ones, and Christ will shine on you. No OT passage
