And call their host I have commanded.

And I will1 direct all his ways;

And let My exiles go free,
cNot for price nor reward,”
Says the Lord of hosts.

The Lord, the Only Savior
14 Thus says the Lord:
a“The labor of Egypt and merchandise of Cush
And of the Sabeans, men of stature,
Shall come over to you, and they shall be yours;
They shall walk behind you,
They shall come over bin chains;
And they shall bow down to you.
They will make supplication to you, saying, c‘Surely God is in you,
And there is no other;
dThere is no other God.’ ”

They will make supplication to you, saying, c‘Surely God is in you,

16 They shall be aashamed
And also disgraced, all of them;
They shall go in confusion together,
Who are makers of idols.
And also disgraced, all of them;
They shall go in confusion together,
Who are makers of idols.
17 aBut Israel shall be saved by the Lord
With an beverlasting salvation;
You shall not be ashamed or cdisgraced
Forever and ever.
With an beverlasting salvation;
You shall not be ashamed or cdisgraced
Forever and ever.
