27–28From the four corners of the earth

people are coming to their senses,

are running back to God.

Long-lost families

are falling on their faces before him.

God has taken charge;

from now on he has the last word.

29All the power-mongers are before him

—worshiping!

All the poor and powerless, too

—worshiping!

Along with those who never got it together

—worshiping!

30–31Our children and their children

will get in on this

As the word is passed along

from parent to child.

Babies not yet conceived

will hear the good news—

that God does what he says.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

All the ends of the earth shall remember

and turn to the Lord,

and all the families of the nations

shall worship before you.

For kingship belongs to the Lord,

and he rules over the nations.

All the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;

before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,

even the one who could not keep himself alive.

Posterity shall serve him;

it shall be told of the Lord to the coming generation;

they shall come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet unborn,

that he has done it.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

All the ends of the earth

will remember and turn to the Lord,

and all the families of the nations

will bow down before him,

for dominion belongs to the Lord

and he rules over the nations.

All the rich of the earth will feast and worship;

all who go down to the dust will kneel before him—

those who cannot keep themselves alive.

Posterity will serve him;

future generations will be told about the Lord.

They will proclaim his righteousness,

declaring to a people yet unborn:

He has done it!

CSBChristian Standard Bible

All the ends of the earth will remember

and turn to the Lord.

All the families of the nations

will bow down before you,

for kingship belongs to the Lord;

he rules the nations.

All who prosper on earth will eat and bow down;

all those who go down to the dust

will kneel before him—

even the one who cannot preserve his life.

Their descendants will serve him;

the next generation will be told about the Lord.

They will come and declare his righteousness;

to a people yet to be born

they will declare what he has done.

NLTNew Living Translation

The whole earth will acknowledge the Lord and return to him.

All the families of the nations will bow down before him.

For royal power belongs to the Lord.

He rules all the nations.

Let the rich of the earth feast and worship.

Bow before him, all who are mortal,

all whose lives will end as dust.

Our children will also serve him.

Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord.

His righteous acts will be told to those not yet born.

They will hear about everything he has done.

All the ends of the earth

All the families of the nations

will worship before you.

Because the kingship belongs to Yahweh,

and he rules over the nations.

Before him all of those descending into the dust will kneel,

even he who cannot keep his soul alive.

Descendants will serve him.

Regarding the Lord, it will be told to the next generation.

They will come and tell his saving deeds

to a people yet to be born, that he has done it.

All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord:

And all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

For the kingdom is the Lord’s:

And he is the governor among the nations.

All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship:

All they that go down to the dust shall bow before him:

And none can keep alive his own soul.

A seed shall serve him;

It shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness

Unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
