Now it will be that
(A)In the last days
The (B)mountain of the house of Yahweh
Will be established [a]as the head of the mountains,
And will be lifted up above the hills;
And (C)all the nations will stream to it.
And many peoples will come and say,
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh,
To the house of the God of Jacob,
That He may instruct us [b]from His ways
And that we may walk in His paths.”
For (D)from Zion the [c]law will go forth
And the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

He says, “It is too [a]small a thing that You should be My Servant
To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to cause the (A)preserved ones of Israel to return;
I will also give You as a (B)light [b]of the nations
So that My salvation may [c]reach to the (C)end of the earth.”

22 Thus says Lord Yahweh,

“Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations
And make high My (A)standard to the peoples;
And they will (B)bring your sons in their bosom,
And your daughters will be lifted up on their shoulders.
23 (C)Kings will be your guardians,
And their princesses your nurses.
They will (D)bow down to you with their [a]faces to the earth
And (E)lick the dust of your feet;
And you will (F)know that I am Yahweh;
Those who (G)hope in Me will (H)not be put to shame.

(A)Nations will come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising.

(B)Lift up your eyes round about and see;
They all gather together; they (C)come to you.
Your sons will come from afar,
And your (D)daughters will be [a]carried on the nurses’ hip.
Then you will see and be (E)radiant,
And your heart will tremble and be large with joy;
Because the (F)abundance of the sea will be turned to you,
The (G)wealth of the nations will come to you.
A multitude of camels will cover you,
The young camels of Midian and (H)Ephah;
All those from (I)Sheba will come;
They will bring (J)gold and frankincense,
And will (K)bear good news of the praises of Yahweh.
All the flocks of (L)Kedar will be gathered together to you;
The rams of Nebaioth will minister to you;
They will go up with acceptance on My (M)altar,
And I shall [b](N)adorn My [c]glorious house with beautiful glory.
(O)Who are these who fly like a cloud
And like the doves to their [d]lattices?
Surely the (P)coastlands will hope in Me;
And the (Q)ships of Tarshish will come first,
To (R)bring your sons from afar,
Their silver and their gold with them,
For the name of Yahweh your God,
And for the Holy One of Israel because He has [e](S)adorned you with beautiful glory.

10 (T)Foreigners will build up your walls,
And their (U)kings will minister to you;
For in My (V)wrath I struck you,
And in My favor I have had compassion on you.
11 Your (W)gates will be open continually;
They will not be closed day or night,
So that men may (X)bring to you the wealth of the nations,
With (Y)their kings led in procession.
12 For the (Z)nation and the kingdom which will not serve you will perish,
And the nations will surely be laid waste.
