³⁷ “Thus says the Lord God: This also ^(A)I will let the house of Israel ask me to do for them: ^(B)to increase their people like ^(C)a flock.

³⁸ Like the flock for sacrifices,^{[a] (A)}like the flock at Jerusalem during her appointed feasts, so ^(B)shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of people. ^(C)Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
