Isaiah 66:17-19
Lexham English Bible
17 Those who sanctify themselves
and those who cleanse themselves to go into[a] the gardens after the one in the middle,
eating the flesh of swine
and detestable things[b] and rodents[c] together
shall come to an end!” declares[d] Yahweh.
18 “And I—their works and thoughts!—am about to come to gather all nations and tongues,
and they shall come and see my glory.
19 And I will set a sign among them,
and I will send survivors from them to the nations:
Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, who draw the bow;
Tubal and Javan, the faraway coastlands
that have not heard of my fame,
and have not seen my glory.
And they shall declare my glory among the nations,
