You will call for nations that you don’t yet know.
    And these nations that do not know you will run to you
because of the Lord your God,
    because of the Holy One of Israel who honors you.”

So you should look for the Lord before it is too late;
    you should call to him while he is near.

    and they should stop their evil thoughts.
They should return to the Lord so he may have mercy on them.
    They should come to our God, because he will freely forgive them.
