25 “So this is what the Lord God says: Now I will restore the fortunes of Jacob(A) and have compassion on the whole house of Israel,(B) and I will be jealous for my holy name. 26 They will feel remorse for[a][b] their disgrace(C) and all the unfaithfulness they committed against me, when they live securely in their land with no one to frighten them. 27 When I bring them back from the peoples and gather them from the countries of their enemies, I will demonstrate my holiness through them in the sight of many nations.(D) 28 They will know that I am the Lord their God when I regather them to their own land after having exiled them among the nations. I will leave none of them behind.[c] 29 I will no longer hide my face from them, for I will pour out my Spirit on the house of Israel.”(E) This is the declaration of the Lord God.

The Lord Will Restore Israel

25 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: Now (A)I will restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on (B)the whole house of Israel, and (C)I will be jealous for my holy name. 26 They shall (D)forget their shame and all the treachery they have practiced against me, when (E)they dwell securely in their land with (F)none to make them afraid, 27 (G)when I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them from their enemies' lands, (H)and through them have vindicated my holiness in the sight of many nations. 28 (I)Then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them into exile among the nations and then assembled them into their own land. I will leave none of them remaining among the nations anymore. 29 (J)And I will not hide my face anymore from them, when (K)I pour out my Spirit upon the house of Israel, declares the Lord God.”
