And their heart will rejoice as if from wine;

Their heart will rejoice and shout triumphantly in the Lord.

“I will ^[b]whistle for them and gather them together,
For I have redeemed them;
And they will increase [again] as they have increased before [in Egypt].^(A)

And with their children they will live and come back [to Me and the land I gave them].

Zechariah 10:7 A reference to the Northern Kingdom.
Zechariah 10:8 Or hiss. From this verse a rabbinical tradition was invented that if a vulture settles on the ground and hisses, the Messiah will come immediately. It was reported to have happened once, but instead of the Messiah coming, the story went that a stone fell on the vulture’s head and killed it because it was a liar.
