²¹ “And I will place My ^(A)glory among the nations; and all the nations will see My judgment which I have executed, and My hand which I have laid on them. ²² And the house of Israel will ^(B)know that I am the Lord their God, from that day onward. ²³ The nations will know that the house of Israel went into exile for their ^(C)wrongdoing, because they were disloyal to Me, and I ^(D)hid My face from them; so I handed them over to their adversaries, and all of them fell by the sword. ^24 (E)In accordance with their uncleanness and their offenses I dealt with them, and I hid My face from them.”’”

Israel Restored

²⁵ Therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Now I will ^(F)restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on all the ^(G)house of Israel; and I will be ^(H)jealous for My holy name. ²⁶ They will ^[a](I)forget their disgrace and all their ^[b]treachery which they perpetrated against Me, when they ^(J)live securely on their own land with ^(K)no one to make them afraid. ²⁷ When I ^(L)bring them back from the peoples and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then I shall ^(M)show Myself holy ^[c]through them in the sight of the many nations. ²⁸ Then they will know that I am the Lord their God because I made them go into exile among the nations, and then I gathered them again to their own land; and I will leave none of them there any longer. ²⁹ I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have ^(N)poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.
