in a mighty windstorm.
Nations in the west and the east
will then honor and praise
his wonderful name.

the city of Zion
and Jacob's descendants
who turn from sin.
21 The Lord says: “My people,
I promise to give you my Spirit
and my message.
These will be my gifts to you
and your families forever.
I, the Lord, have spoken.”
