⁸ “Behold, I am ^(A)bringing them from the north country,
And I will ^(B)gather them from the remote parts of the earth,
Among them the ^(C)blind and the ^(D)lame,
The woman with child and she who is in labor with child, together;
A great ^[a]company, they will return here.
⁹ “^(E)With weeping they will come,
And by supplication I will lead them;
I will make them walk by ^(F)streams of waters,
On a straight path in which they will ^(G)not stumble;
For I am a ^(H)father to Israel,
And Ephraim is ^(I)My firstborn.”
