24 And there will not be any longer[a] a painful thorn and a sharp thornbush for[b] the house of Israel from anywhere around them[c] from those who are despising them,[d] and they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.”’”

25 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: “When I gather the house of Israel from the peoples to which they were scattered about in them, and I show myself holy in[e] them before the eyes of the nations, then they will live on their soil, which I gave to my servant Jacob. 26 And they will live on it in safety, and they will build houses, and they will plant vineyards, and they will live in safety when I execute my judgments on all those who despise them from all around them,[f] and then they will know that I am Yahweh their God.”
