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.

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

“Jacob (B)will not be ashamed now, nor will his face turn pale now;
23 But when [a]he sees his (C)children, the (D)work of My hands, in his midst,
They will sanctify My name;
Indeed, they will (E)sanctify the Holy One of Jacob,
And will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Those who (F)err in [b]mind will (G)know [c]the truth,
And those who [d]criticize will [e](H)accept instruction.
