Israel Restored

25 Therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Now I will (A)restore the fortunes of Jacob and have mercy on all the (B)house of Israel; and I will be (C)jealous for My holy name. 26 They will [a](D)forget their disgrace and all their [b]treachery which they perpetrated against Me, when they (E)live securely on their own land with (F)no one to make them afraid. 27 When I (G)bring them back from the peoples and gather them from the lands of their enemies, then I shall (H)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 (I)poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,” declares the Lord God.

25 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: (A)‘Now I will bring back the captives of Jacob, and have mercy on the (B)whole house of Israel; and I will be jealous for My holy name— 26 (C)after they have borne their shame, and all their unfaithfulness in which they were unfaithful to Me, when they (D)dwelt safely in their own land and no one made them afraid. 27 (E)When I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and I (F)am hallowed in them in the sight of many nations, 28 (G)then they shall know that I am the Lord their God, who sent them into captivity among the nations, but also brought them back to their land, and left none of them [a]captive any longer. 29 (H)And I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have (I)poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel,’ says the Lord God.”
