(A)“I will strengthen the house of Judah,
    and (B)I will save the house of Joseph.
(C)I will bring them back (D)because I have compassion on them,
    and they shall be as though I had not rejected them,
    for (E)I am the Lord their God and I will answer them.
Then Ephraim shall become like a mighty warrior,
    and (F)their hearts shall be glad as with wine.
Their children shall see it and be glad;
    their hearts shall rejoice in the Lord.

(G)“I will whistle for them and (H)gather them in,
    for I have redeemed them,
    and (I)they shall be as many as they were before.
(J)Though I scattered them among the nations,
    yet in far countries (K)they shall remember me,
    and with their children they shall live and return.
10 (L)I will bring them home from the land of Egypt,
    and gather them from Assyria,
and (M)I will bring them to the land of Gilead and to Lebanon,
    (N)till there is no room for them.
