10 For someday the people will follow me.
    I, the Lord, will roar like a lion.
And when I roar,
    my people will return trembling from the west.
11 Like a flock of birds, they will come from Egypt.
    Trembling like doves, they will return from Assyria.
And I will bring them home again,”
    says the Lord.

        from the sea.[a]

    and like doves[c] from the land of Assyria;
and I will let them return[d] to their homes—
    a declaration of Yahweh.
