23. He shall command the great deep, and it shall be driven back
into the north countries, and the islands shall become one land:
24. And the land of Jerusalem and the land of Zion shall be turned
back into their own place, and the earth shall be like as it was in
the days before it was divided.
25. And the Lord, even the Savior, shall stand in the midst of his
people, and shall reign over all flesh.
26. And they who are in the north countries shall come in
remembrance before the Lord and their prophets shall hear His
voice, and shall no longer stay themselves, and they shall smite
the rocks, and the ice shall flow down at their presence.
27. And an highway shall be cast up in the midst of the great deep.
28. Their enemies shall become a prey unto them,
29. And in the barren deserts there shall come forth pools of
living water; and the parched ground shall no longer be a thirsty
land.
30. And they shall bring forth their rich treasures unto the
children of Ephraim, my servants.
31. And the boundaries of the everlasting hills shall tremble at
their presence.
32. And there shall they fall down and be crowned with glory,
even in Zion, by the hands of the servants of the Lord, even the
children of Ephraim;
33. And they shall be filled with songs of everlasting joy.
34. Behold, this is the blessing of the everlasting God upon the
tribes of Israel, and the richer blessing upon the head of Ephraim
and his fellows.
35. And they also of the tribe of Judah, after their pain, shall
be {232} sanctified in holiness before the Lord, to dwell in his
presence day and night, forever and ever.
36. And now, verily saith the Lord, That these things might be
known among you, O inhabitants of the earth, I have sent forth mine
angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the everlasting
Gospel, who hath appeared unto some, and hath committed it unto
man, who shall appear unto many that dwell on the earth;
37. And this Gospel shall be preached unto every nation, and
kindred, and tongue, and people,
38. And the servants of God shall go forth, saying with a loud
voice, Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment
is come;
39. And worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and
the fountains of waters,
40. Calling upon the name of the Lord day and night, saying, O that
thou wouldst rend the heavens, that thou wouldst come down, that
the mountains might flow down at Thy presence.
41. And it shall be answered upon their heads, for the presence of
the Lord shall be as the melting fire that burneth, and as the fire
which causeth the waters to boil.
42. O Lord, Thou shalt come down to make Thy name known to thine
adversaries, and all nations shall tremble at Thy presence.
