Isaiah 66:12-19 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

12. For thus says the Lord:I will spread prosperity over her like a river,like an overflowing torrent,the wealth of nations.You shall nurse, carried in her arms,cradled upon her knees;

13. As a mother comforts her child,so I will comfort you;in Jerusalem you shall find your comfort.

14. You will see and your heart shall exult,and your bodies shall flourish like the grass;The Lord’s power shall be revealed to his servants,but to his enemies, his wrath.

15. For see, the Lord will come in fire,his chariots like the stormwind;To wreak his anger in burning rageand his rebuke in fiery flames.

16. For with fire the Lord shall enter into judgment,and, with his sword, against all flesh;Those slain by the Lord shall be many.

17. Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go into the gardens, following one who stands within, eating pig’s flesh, abominable things, and mice, shall all together come to an end, with their deeds and purposes—oracle of the Lord.

18. I am coming to gather all nations and tongues; they shall come and see my glory.

19. I will place a sign among them; from them I will send survivors to the nations: to Tarshish, Put and Lud, Mosoch, Tubal and Javan, to the distant coastlands which have never heard of my fame, or seen my glory; and they shall proclaim my glory among the nations.
