Isaiah 66:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 For I will visit their works, and their imaginations, for it shall come that I will gather all nations, and tongues, and they shall come, and see my [a]glory.
19 And I will set a [b]sign among them, and will send those that [c]escape of them unto the nations of [d]Tarshish, [e]Pul, and [f]Lud, and to them that draw the [g]bow, to [h]Tubal and [i]Javan, isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory, and [j]they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
20 And they shall bring all your [k]brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations, upon [l]horses, and in chariots, and in horse litters, and upon mules, and swift beasts, to Jerusalem mine holy Mountain, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel offer in a clean vessel in the House of the Lord.
