Isaiah 11:10-16

Amplified Bible

¹⁰
Then in that day
The nations will make supplications to the Root of Jesse
Who will stand as a signal for the peoples;
And His resting place will be glorious.^(A)

The Restored Remnant

¹¹
Then it will happen on that day that the Lord
Will again acquire with His hand a second time
The remnant of His people, who will remain,
From Assyria, from [Lower] Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush (Ethiopia), from Elam [in Persia], from Shinar [Babylonia], from Hamath [in Aram],
And from the coastlands bordering the [Mediterranean] Sea.^(B)
¹²
And He will lift up a signal for the nations
And assemble the ^[a]outcasts of Israel,
And will gather the dispersed of Judah
From the four corners of the earth.
¹³
Then the jealousy of ^[b]Ephraim will depart,
And those who harass ^[c]Judah will be cut off;
Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
And Judah will not harass Ephraim.
¹⁴
Ephraim and Judah will [unite and] swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines toward the west;
Together they will plunder the sons (Arabs) of the east.
They will possess Edom and Moab,
And the sons of Ammon will be subject to them.
¹⁵
And the Lord will utterly destroy
The tongue of the ^[d]Sea of Egypt;
And with His scorching wind
He will wave His hand over the River;
He will strike and divide it into seven channels
And make [it possible for] people [to] walk over in sandals.
¹⁶
And there will be a highway from Assyria
For the remnant of His people who will be left,
Just as there was for Israel
In the day when they came up out of the land of Egypt.
