Isaiah 66:17-19

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁷ The Lord says, “These are the people who wash themselves and make themselves pure so that they can go into their special gardens^[a] to worship their idols. They follow each other into the gardens to eat meat from pigs, rats, and other dirty things. But they will all be destroyed together.

¹⁸ “They have evil thoughts and do evil things, so I am coming to punish them. I will gather all nations and all people. Everyone will be gathered together to see my Glory.^{[b] 19} I will put a mark on some of the people. I will send some of these saved people to the nations of Tarshish, Libya,^[c] Lud^[d] (the land of archers), Tubal,^[e] Greece, and all the faraway lands. Those people have never heard my teachings. They have never seen my Glory. So the saved people will tell the nations about my glory.
