In Isaiah 58:10 God is speaking about the good he has planned for his people. To describe how many he will bless he doesn't use a number but rather a description of their physical proximity to him. He mentions those "far away and those nearby." This is nearly identical to the phrasing Paul using in Ephesians 2:17 to proclaim the Jesus' peace is available to those far away and those nearby.
