Isaiah 11:10-16

Living Bible

¹⁰ In that day he who created the royal dynasty of David^[a] will be a banner of salvation to all the world. The nations will rally to him, for the land where he lives will be a glorious place. ¹¹ At that time the Lord will bring back a remnant of his people for the second time, returning them to the land of Israel from Assyria, Upper and Lower Egypt, Ethiopia, Elam, Babylonia, Hamath, and all the distant coastal lands. ¹² He will raise a flag among the nations for them to rally to; he will gather the scattered Israelites from the ends of the earth. ¹³ Then at last the jealousy between Israel and Judah will end; they will not fight each other anymore. ¹⁴ Together they will fly against the nations possessing their land on the east and on the west, uniting forces to destroy them, and they will occupy the nations of Edom and Moab and Ammon.

¹⁵ The Lord will dry a path through the Red Sea^[b] and wave his hand over the Euphrates, sending a mighty wind to divide it into seven streams that can easily be crossed. ¹⁶ He will make a highway from Assyria for the remnant there, just as he did for all of Israel long ago when they returned from Egypt.
