18 I will gather those who are (A)worried about the appointed feasts—
They [a]came from you, Zion;
The disgrace of exile is a burden on [b]them.
19 Behold, I am going to deal at that time
With all your (B)oppressors;
I will save (C)those who limp
And gather the scattered,
And I will turn their (D)shame into (E)praise and fame
In all the earth.
20 At that time I will (F)bring you in,
Even at the time when I gather you together;
Indeed, I will make you (G)famous and praiseworthy
Among all the peoples of the earth,
When I (H)restore your fortunes before your eyes,”
Says the Lord.
