10 From across the rivers
    of Ethiopia,[a]
my scattered people,
my true worshipers,
    will bring offerings to me.

11 When that time comes,
you won't rebel against me
    and be put to shame.
I'll do away with those
    who are proud and arrogant.
Never will any of them
strut around
    on my holy mountain.
12 But I, the Lord, won't destroy
    any of your people
who are truly humble
    and turn to me for safety.
