25 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: Now I will restore[a] the fortunes of Jacob, and I will have mercy on the entire house of Israel. I will be zealous for my holy name. 26 They will bear their shame for all their unfaithful acts against me, when they live securely on their land with no one to make them afraid. 27 When I have brought them back from the peoples and gathered them from the countries of their enemies, I will magnify myself among them in the sight of many nations. 28 Then they will know that I am the Lord their God because I sent them into exile among the nations and then gathered them into their own land. I will not leave any of them in exile[b] any longer. 29 I will no longer hide my face from them, when I pour out my Spirit on the house of Israel,[c] declares the Sovereign Lord.”
