And (B)if you will put away your detestable things from My presence,
And will not waver,

(D)In truth, in justice, and in righteousness;
Then the (E)nations will bless themselves in Him,
And (F)in Him they will boast.”

“Return to me,
remove your detestable idols from my presence,

in truth, in justice, and in righteousness,
then nations will be blessed[a] by him,
and in him they will boast.”
