- “Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify Your name?
- For You alone are holy;
- For all the nations will come and worship before You,
- For Your righteous acts have been revealed.”
- Revelation 15:4

And it will be that whichever of the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, there will be no rain on them.
