22 Therefore thus says the Lord, (A)who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob:

“Jacob shall no more be ashamed,
    no more shall his face grow pale.
23 For when he sees his children,
    (B)the work of my hands, in his midst,
    they will sanctify my name;
(C)they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob
    and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 And those (D)who go astray in spirit will come to understanding,
    and those who murmur will accept instruction.”

22 That is why the Lord, who redeemed Abraham, says to the people of Israel,[a]

“My people will no longer be ashamed
    or turn pale with fear.
23 For when they see their many children
    and all the blessings I have given them,
they will recognize the holiness of the Holy One of Jacob.
    They will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Then the wayward will gain understanding,
    and complainers will accept instruction.
