    the speech of the peoples,
That they all may call upon the name of the Lord,
    to serve him with one accord;

    and as far as the recesses of the North,
    they shall bring me offerings.

For then I will remove from your midst
    the proud braggarts,
And you shall no longer exalt yourself
    on my holy mountain.

    on my holy hill.(I)
