Isaiah 66:15-24

15For behold, the Lord will come in 1fire And His 2chariots like the whirlwind, To render His anger with fury, And His rebuke with flames of fire.16For the Lord will execute judgment by 3fire And by His 4sword on all flesh, And those slain by the Lord will be many.17“Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go to the 5gardens, 6Following one in the center, Who eat 7swine’s flesh, detestable things and mice, Will 8come to an end altogether,” declares the Lord.

18“For I 9know their works and their 10thoughts; 11the time is coming to 12gather all nations and tongues. And they shall come and see My glory. 19I will set a 13sign among them and will send survivors from them to the nations: 14Tarshish, 15Put, 16Lud, 17Meshech, 18Tubal and 19Javan, to the distant 20coastlands that have neither heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they will 21declare My glory among the nations. 20Then they shall 22bring all your brethren from all the nations as a grain offering to the Lord, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules and on camels, to My 23holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the Lord, “just as the sons of Israel bring their grain offering in a 24clean vessel to the house of the Lord. 21I will also take some of them for 25priests and for Levites,” says the Lord.22“For just as the 26new heavens and the new earth Which I make will endure before Me,” declares the Lord, “So your 27offspring and your 28name will endure.23And it shall be from 29new moon to new moon And from sabbath to sabbath, All 30mankind will come to 31bow down before Me,” says the Lord.24“Then they will go forth and look On the 32corpses of the men Who have 3334transgressed against Me. For their 35worm will not die 36And their fire will not be quenched; And they will be an 37abhorrence to all 38mankind.”
