At that time, there will be a special person from Jesse’s {\cf2\super [135]} family. This person will be like a flag. This “flag” will show all the nations that they should come together around him. The nations will ask him the things they should do. And the place where he is will be filled with glory.
The Lord says,\par “Look, I will give you peace.\par This peace will come flowing to you\par like a great river.\par Wealth from all the nations on earth\par will come flowing to you.\par That wealth will come like a flood.\par \{You will be like little babies\}.\par You will drink that ‘milk’ (wealth)\par I will pick you up,\par hold you in my arms,\par and bounce you on my knees.\par
This is what we are proud of, and I can say with all my heart that it is true: In all the things we have done in the world, we have done everything with an honest and pure heart from God. And this is even more true in the things we have done with you. We did this by God’s grace (kindness), not by the kind of wisdom the world has.
