Neue Hoffnung für Israel

11 Gott sagt: »An jenem Tag werde ich das Reich von König David wieder aufbauen. Jetzt gleicht es zwar einem verfallenen Haus, doch dann richte ich die umgestürzten Wände wieder auf und schließe die Risse in der Mauer. Ja, ich lasse es wieder in seinem alten Glanz erstehen. 12 Die Israeliten werden in Besitz nehmen, was vom Gebiet der Edomiter übrig geblieben ist. Auch über all die anderen Völker, die ich zu meinem Eigentum erklärt habe, werden sie ihre Herrschaft ausdehnen. Dafür sorge ich, der Herr. Mein Wort gilt!
