³ “I myself will gather the remnant^(A) of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture,^(B) where they will be fruitful and increase in number.

⁸ but they will say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the descendants of Israel up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ Then they will live in their own land.”^(A)
