“See, I will beckon to the nations,

I will lift up my banner to the peoples;

they will bring your sons in their arms

and carry your daughters on their hips.

Then you will know that I am the Lord;

those who hope in me will not be disappointed.”

They will carry your little sons back to you in their arms;

they will bring your daughters on their shoulders.

and lick the dust from your feet.

Then you will know that I am the Lord.

Those who trust in me will never be put to shame.”

“Look! I will lift my hand up to the nations,

and I will raise my signal to the peoples,

and they shall bring your sons in their bosom,

and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.

And kings shall be your guardians,

and their queens your nurses.

They shall bow down, faces to the ground, to you,

and they will lick up the dust of your feet.

Then you will know that I am Yahweh;

those who await me shall not be ashamed.

KJV 1900King James Version

Thus saith the Lord God,

Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles,

And set up my standard to the people:

And they shall bring thy sons in their arms,

And thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.

And kings shall be thy nursing fathers,

And their queens thy nursing mothers:

They shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth,

And lick up the dust of thy feet;

And thou shalt know that I am the Lord:

For they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
