Tears of joy will stream down their faces,
    and I will lead them home with great care.
They will walk beside quiet streams
    and on smooth paths where they will not stumble.
For I am Israel’s father,
    and Ephraim is my oldest child.

10 “Listen to this message from the Lord,
    you nations of the world;
    proclaim it in distant coastlands:
The Lord, who scattered his people,
    will gather them and watch over them
    as a shepherd does his flock.
11 For the Lord has redeemed Israel
    from those too strong for them.
12 They will come home and sing songs of joy on the heights of Jerusalem.
    They will be radiant because of the Lord’s good gifts—
the abundant crops of grain, new wine, and olive oil,
    and the healthy flocks and herds.
Their life will be like a watered garden,
    and all their sorrows will be gone.
13 The young women will dance for joy,
    and the men—old and young—will join in the celebration.
I will turn their mourning into joy.
    I will comfort them and exchange their sorrow for rejoicing.
14 The priests will enjoy abundance,
    and my people will feast on my good gifts.
    I, the Lord, have spoken!”

10 “Hear the word of the Lord, you nations;
    proclaim it in distant coastlands:(F)
‘He who scattered(G) Israel will gather(H) them
    and will watch over his flock like a shepherd.’(I)
11 For the Lord will deliver Jacob
    and redeem(J) them from the hand of those stronger(K) than they.
12 They will come and shout for joy(L) on the heights(M) of Zion;
    they will rejoice in the bounty(N) of the Lord
the grain, the new wine and the olive oil,(O)
    the young of the flocks(P) and herds.
They will be like a well-watered garden,(Q)
    and they will sorrow(R) no more.
13 Then young women will dance and be glad,
    young men and old as well.
I will turn their mourning(S) into gladness;
    I will give them comfort(T) and joy(U) instead of sorrow.
14 I will satisfy(V) the priests(W) with abundance,
    and my people will be filled with my bounty,(X)
