18 “For I know their works and their thoughts. The time comes that I will gather all nations and languages, and they will come, and will see my glory.

18 “For I [a]know their works and their (A)thoughts; [b]the time is coming to (B)gather all the nations and tongues. And they shall come and see My glory. 19 And I will put a (C)sign among them and send survivors from them to the nations: (D)Tarshish, [c]Put, (E)Lud, [d]Meshech, (F)Tubal, and [e]Javan, to the distant (G)coastlands that have neither heard of My fame nor seen My glory. And they will (H)declare My glory among the nations. 20 Then they shall (I)bring all your countrymen from all the nations as a grain offering to the Lord, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules, and on camels, to My (J)holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the Lord, “just as the sons of Israel bring their grain offering in a (K)clean vessel to the house of the Lord. 21 I will also take some of them as (L)priests and Levites,” says the Lord.
