¹⁹ They will send out the word for the people to come to the mountain, taking there the offerings of righteousness: for the store of the seas will be theirs, and the secret wealth of the sand.

⁵ Then you will see, and be bright with joy, and your heart will be shaking with increase of delight: for the produce of the sea will be turned to you, the wealth of the nations will come to you.

³ And the peoples will say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he will give us knowledge of his ways, and we will be guided by his word; for out of Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

⁵ Give the offerings of righteousness, and put your faith in the Lord.

¹⁷ You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands.

⁵ You, as living stones, are being made into a house of the spirit, a holy order of priests, making those offerings of the spirit which are pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.

¹⁵ Let us then make offerings of praise to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name.

¹⁶ But go on doing good and giving to others, because God is well-pleased with such offerings.

² And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will give us knowledge of his ways and we will be guided by his word: for from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

²² Let them make offerings of praise, giving news of his works with cries of joy.

¹⁹ Then you will have delight in the offerings of righteousness, in burned offerings and offerings of beasts; then they will make offerings of oxen on your altar.

¹⁶ You have no desire for an offering or I would give it; you have no delight in burned offerings.
