Restoration of Jacob

18 “This is what the Lord says:
‘Behold, I will (A)restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob
And (B)have compassion on his dwellings;
And the (C)city will be rebuilt on its ruins,
And the (D)palace will stand on its rightful place.
19 From them will come a (E)song of thanksgiving
And the voices of those who [a](F)celebrate;
And I will (G)multiply them and they will not decrease;
I will (H)honor them and they will not be insignificant.
20 [b]Their children also will be as before,
And [c]their congregation will be (I)established before Me;
And I will punish all [d]their oppressors.
21 [e]Their (J)leader shall be one of them,
And [f]their ruler will come out from [g]their midst;
And I will (K)bring him near and he shall approach Me;
For [h]who would dare to risk his life to (L)approach Me?’ declares the Lord.
22 ‘You shall be (M)My people,
And I will be your God.’”
