8 “Therefore, wait for me”—a declaration of Yahweh— “for the day of my rising as a witness. For my decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out my wrath upon them, all my burning anger. For by the fire of my anger all the land shall be consumed.
9 Because then I will make the speech of the nations pure; that all of them might call on the name of Yahweh, to serve him in unison.
10 From beyond the rivers of Cush my worshipers and the daughter of my scattered ones shall bring my offering.
11 On that day you shall not be humiliated on account of all your deeds by which you have rebelled against me. For then I shall remove from your midst those exulting in your pride, and you shall no longer be haughty in my holy mountain.
12 And I will leave in your midst a people afflicted and poor, and they shall take refuge in the name of Yahweh.
13 The remnant of Israel shall not do wickedness; they shall not speak deception, nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth. For they shall graze and lie down, and none shall frighten them.”
14 Shout for joy, O daughter of Zion! Cry aloud, O Israel! Rejoice and be jubilant with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!
