|"revelation" is a more precise translation from the Greek. Also, the original Greek word in the verse was "nations" not Gentiles or non-believers...which meant any other nation than Israel...i.e. - all non-Jews. The Bible often highlights God's special relationship with the nation of Israel. To stay true in our translation, we must not dilute this distinction.
