Isaiah 66:7-23
7“BeforeH2962 she was in laborH2342, she gave birthH3205; beforeH2962H935 she was in painH2256, she deliveredH4422 a boyH2145.8WhoH4310 has heardH8085 of such as thisH2063? WhoH4310 has seenH7200 such thingsH428? Can a countryH776 be bornH2342 in aH259 dayH3117 orH518 a nationH1471 be deliveredH3205 in an instantH6471H259? YetH3588 as soon as ZionH6726 was in laborH2342H1571, she gave birth toH3205 her childrenH1121.9Shall IH589 bring a baby to the point of birthH7665 and notH3808 deliver itH3205?” saysH559 the LORDH3068. “OrH518 will IH589 who deliverH3205 close the wombH6113?” saysH559 your GodH430.
12ForH3588 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068H2005 saysH559:
17“Those who consecrateH6942 and purify themselvesH2891 toH413 enter the grovesH1593—to followH310 oneH259 in the centerH8432 of those who eatH398 the fleshH1320 of swineH2386 and verminH8263 and ratsH5909—will perishH5486 togetherH3162,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.
18“And IH595, knowing their deedsH4639 and thoughtsH4284, am comingH9351 to gatherH6908 allH3605 nationsH1471 and tonguesH3956, and they will comeH935 and seeH7200 My gloryH3519.
19I will establishH7760 a signH226 among them, and I will sendH7971 survivorsH6412 from among them toH413 the nationsH1471—to TarshishH8659, PutH6322, and the archersH4900H7198 of LudH3865; to TubalH8422, JavanH3120, and the islandsH3392 far awayH7350 whoH834 have notH3808 heardH8085 of My fameH8088H3808 or seenH7200 My gloryH3519.
So they will proclaimH5046 My gloryH3519 among the nationsH1471. 20And they will bringH935 allH3605 your brothersH251 from allH3605 the nationsH1471 as a giftH4503 to the LORDH3068 on horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 and wagonsH6632, on mulesH6505 and camelsH3753, toH5921 My holyH6944 mountainH2022 JerusalemH3389,” saysH559 the LORDH3068, “just asH834 the IsraelitesH1121H3478 bringH935 an offeringH4503 in a cleanH2889 vesselH3627 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.”
21“And I willH1571 selectH3947 some of them as priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881,” saysH559 the LORDH3068.
