Isaiah 66:19-21
Easy-to-Read Version
19 I will put a mark on some of the people. I will send some of these saved people to the nations of Tarshish, Libya,[a] Lud[b] (the land of archers), Tubal,[c] Greece, and all the faraway lands. Those people have never heard my teachings. They have never seen my Glory. So the saved people will tell the nations about my glory. 20 And they will bring all your brothers and sisters from those other nations to my holy mountain[d] Jerusalem as an offering to the Lord. Your brothers and sisters will ride on horses, mules, camels, and in chariots and wagons. They will be like the gifts that the Israelites bring on clean plates to the Temple of the Lord. 21 I will also choose some of these people to be priests and Levites.” The Lord himself said this.

New International Version
19 “I will set a sign(A) among them, and I will send some of those who survive(B) to the nations—to Tarshish,(C) to the Libyans[a] and Lydians(D) (famous as archers), to Tubal(E) and Greece,(F) and to the distant islands(G) that have not heard of my fame or seen my glory.(H) They will proclaim my glory among the nations. 20 And they will bring(I) all your people, from all the nations, to my holy mountain(J) in Jerusalem as an offering to the Lord—on horses, in chariots and wagons, and on mules and camels,”(K) says the Lord. “They will bring them, as the Israelites bring their grain offerings, to the temple of the Lord in ceremonially clean vessels.(L) 21 And I will select some of them also to be priests(M) and Levites,” says the Lord.
