Isaiah 11:10-16
New International Version
10 In that day(A) the Root of Jesse(B) will stand as a banner(C) for the peoples; the nations(D) will rally to him,(E) and his resting place(F) will be glorious.(G) 11 In that day(H) the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the surviving remnant(I) of his people from Assyria,(J) from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt,(K) from Cush,[a](L) from Elam,(M) from Babylonia,[b] from Hamath(N) and from the islands(O) of the Mediterranean.(P)
12 He will raise a banner(Q) for the nations
and gather(R) the exiles of Israel;(S)
he will assemble the scattered people(T) of Judah
from the four quarters of the earth.(U)
13 Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,
and Judah’s enemies[c] will be destroyed;
Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah,
nor Judah hostile toward Ephraim.(V)
14 They will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia(W) to the west;
together they will plunder the people to the east.(X)
They will subdue Edom(Y) and Moab,(Z)
and the Ammonites(AA) will be subject to them.(AB)
15 The Lord will dry up(AC)
the gulf of the Egyptian sea;
with a scorching wind(AD) he will sweep his hand(AE)
over the Euphrates River.(AF)
He will break it up into seven streams
so that anyone can cross over in sandals.(AG)
16 There will be a highway(AH) for the remnant(AI) of his people
that is left from Assyria,(AJ)
as there was for Israel
when they came up from Egypt.(AK)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Return of the Remnant of Israel and Judah
10 On that day the root of Jesse shall stand as a signal to the peoples; the nations shall inquire of him, and his dwelling shall be glorious.(A)
11 On that day the Lord will again raise[a] his hand to recover the remnant that is left of his people, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coastlands of the sea.(B)
12 He will raise a signal for the nations
and will assemble the outcasts of Israel
and gather the dispersed of Judah
from the four corners of the earth.(C)
13 The jealousy of Ephraim shall depart;
the hostility of Judah shall be cut off;
Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah,
and Judah shall not be hostile toward Ephraim.(D)
14 But they shall swoop down on the backs of the Philistines in the west;
together they shall plunder the people of the east.
They shall put forth their hand against Edom and Moab,
and the Ammonites shall obey them.(E)
15 And the Lord will dry up[b]
the tongue of the sea of Egypt
and will wave his hand over the River
with his scorching wind
and will split it into seven channels
and make a way to cross on foot;(F)
16 so there shall be a highway from Assyria
for the remnant that is left of his people,
as there was for Israel
when they came up from the land of Egypt.(G)
