Lexham English Bible
16 ‘After these things I will return
and build up again the tent of David that has fallen,
and the parts of it that had been torn down I will build up again
and will restore it,
17 so that the rest of humanity may seek the Lord,
even all the Gentiles[a] who are called by my name,[b]
says the Lord,[c] who makes these things 18 known from of old.’[d]
