Isaiah 45:24 Douay-Rheims

For every knee shall be bowed to me, and every tongue shall swear.

Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

But to me did He say by the Lord Heb. אַךְ בַה' לִי אָמַר [lit. but by the Lord to me He said]. This verse is inverted, and thus is its interpretation: But to me did He say by the Lord righteousness and strength. Although all the nations shall prostrate themselves before Him [correct reading according to Warsaw edition, K’li Paz, and mss.], but to me alone, the congregation of Israel, has been promised by the Lord righteousness and strength, and other nations shall not be included in my glory. to Him shall come and be ashamed etc. All who were incensed against the Holy One, blessed be He, shall come to Him to regret what they did in their lifetimes and be ashamed. all who are incensed Heb. כֹּל הַנֶּחֱרִים בּוֹ, all who are incensed.
