10 [a]Yet the number of the sons of Israel
Will be like the (A)sand of the sea,
Which cannot be measured or counted;
And (B)in the place
Where it is said to them,
“You are (C)not My people,”
It will be said to them,
You are the (D)sons of the living God.”
11 And the (E)sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be (F)gathered together,
And they will appoint for themselves (G)one leader,
And they will go up from the land,
For the day of Jezreel will be great.
