Isaiah 11:11–16

¹¹In that day^g the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the surviving remnant^h of his people from Assyria,ⁱ from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt,^j from Cush,^bk from Elam,^l from Babylonia,^c from Hamath^m and from the islandsⁿ of the Mediterranean.^o

¹²He will raise a banner^p for the nations

and gather^q the exiles of Israel;^r

he will assemble the scattered people^s of Judah

from the four quarters of the earth.^t

¹³Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,

and Judah’s enemies^d will be destroyed;

Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,

nor Judah hostile toward Ephraim.^u

¹⁴They will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia^v to the west;

together they will plunder the people to the east.^w

They will subdue Edom^x and Moab,^y

and the Ammonites^z will be subject to them.^a

¹⁵The Lord will dry up^b

the gulf of the Egyptian sea;

with a scorching wind^c he will sweep his hand^d

over the Euphrates River.^e

He will break it up into seven streams

so that anyone can cross over in sandals.^f

¹⁶There will be a highway^g for the remnant^h of his people

that is left from Assyria,ⁱ

as there was for Israel

when they came up from Egypt.^j
