10 and if you offer yourself[a] to the hungry,
and satisfy the afflicted one,
then your light will shine in the darkness,(A)
and your night will be like noonday.
11 The Lord will always lead you,
satisfy you in a parched land,
and strengthen your bones.
You will be like a watered garden(B)
and like a spring whose waters never run dry.(C)
12 Some of you will rebuild the ancient ruins;(D)
you will restore the foundations laid long ago;[b](E)
you will be called the repairer of broken walls,
the restorer of streets where people live.
