“From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia my suppliants, even the daughter of my dispersed, shall bring mine offering.”
From beyond the rivers of Cush my worshipers, the daughter of my dispersed ones, shall bring my offering—the promise extends to the dispersed and distant peoples; geography becomes irrelevant to covenant belonging. The 'daughter of my dispersed ones' suggests that even those scattered far from Jerusalem maintain covenant relationship and bring offerings. The scope of God's covenant expands beyond ethnic or geographic boundaries.
