The Restoration of Israel

11 “In that day (A)I will raise up
    the booth of David that is fallen
and repair its breaches,
    and raise up its ruins
    and rebuild it as in the days of old,
12 (B)that they may possess the remnant of Edom
    and (C)all the nations who are called by my name,”[a]
    declares the Lord who does this.

13 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord,
    (D)“when the plowman shall overtake the reaper
    and the treader of grapes him who sows the seed;
(E)the mountains shall drip sweet wine,
    and all the hills shall flow with it.
14 (F)I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel,
    and (G)they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them;
(H)they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine,
    and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.
15 (I)I will plant them on their land,
    (J)and they shall never again be uprooted
    out of the land (K)that I have given them,”
says the Lord your God.
