Isaiah 11 - Revised Standard Version Old Tradition 1952(RSV-C)

1

as the waters cover the sea.

10 Is 11.1; Rom 15.12. In that day the root of Jesse shall stand as an ensign to the peoples; him shall the nations seek, and his dwellings shall be glorious.

11In that day the Lord will extend his hand yet a second time to recover the remnant which is left of his people, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coastlands of the sea.

12He will raise an ensign for the nations,

and will assemble the outcasts of Israel,

and gather the dispersed of Judah

from the four corners of the earth.

13The jealousy of Ephraim shall depart,

and those who harass Judah shall be cut off;

Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah,

and Judah shall not harass Ephraim.

14But they shall swoop down upon the shoulder of the Philistines in the west,

and 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.

15And the Lord will utterly destroy

the tongue of the sea of Egypt;

and will wave his hand over the River

with his scorching wind,

and smite it into seven channels

that men may cross dryshod.

16And there will be a highway from Assyria

for the remnant which is left of his people,

as there was for Israel

when they came up from the land of Egypt.
