Isaiah 48:18-20
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments: thy peace had been as a river, and thy justice as the waves of the sea,
19 And thy seed had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof: his name should not have perished, nor have been destroyed from before my face.
20 Come forth out of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, declare it with the voice of joy: make this to be heard, and speak it out even to the ends of the earth. Say: The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.

New International Version
18 If only you had paid attention(A) to my commands,
your peace(B) would have been like a river,(C)
your well-being(D) like the waves of the sea.
19 Your descendants(E) would have been like the sand,(F)
your children like its numberless grains;(G)
their name would never be blotted out(H)
nor destroyed from before me.”
Isaiah 48:18-20
King James Version
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
