They’ll return with all your long-lost brothers and sisters from all over the world. They’ll bring them back and offer them in living worship to God. They’ll bring them on horses and wagons and carts, on mules and camels, straight to my holy mountain Jerusalem,” says God. “They’ll present them just as Israelites present their offerings in a ceremonial vessel in the Temple of God. I’ll even take some of them and make them priests and Levites,” says God.

^22–23“For just as the new heavens and new earth

that I am making will stand firm before me”

—God’s Decree—

“So will your children

and your reputation stand firm.

Month after month and week by week,

everyone will come to worship me,” God says.

²⁴“And then they’ll go out and look at what happened

to those who rebelled against me. Corpses!

Maggots endlessly eating away on them,

an endless supply of fuel for fires.

Everyone who sees what’s happened

and smells the stench retches.”

All who pass by

will view them with utter horror.”

and bring all your countrymen from all the nations as an offering to Yahweh on horses and chariots and in litters and on mules and camels, to my holy mountain, Jerusalem,” says Yahweh, “just as the sons of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel to the house of Yahweh.

for their worm shall not die,

and their fire shall not be quenched,

and they shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.”

KJV 1900King James Version

And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations

Upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts,

To my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord,

As the children of Israel bring an offering

In a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.

And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord.

For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make,

Shall remain before me, saith the Lord,

So shall your seed and your name remain.

And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another,

And from one sabbath to another,

Shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.

And they shall go forth, and look

Upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me:

For their worm shall not die,

Neither shall their fire be quenched;

And they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
