Amos 9:11-12
New Living Translation
A Promise of Restoration
11 “In that day I will restore the fallen house[a] of David.
I will repair its damaged walls.
From the ruins I will rebuild it
and restore its former glory.
12 And Israel will possess what is left of Edom
and all the nations I have called to be mine.[b]”
The Lord has spoken,
and he will do these things.

International Standard Version
Israel to be Restored
11 “At that time I will restore David’s fallen tent,
restoring its torn places.
I will restore its ruins,
rebuilding it as it was long ago,
12 so my people[a] may inherit the remnant of Edom
and all of the nations that bear my name,”
declares the Lord who is bringing this about.
