LEB(i)
18 Thus says Yahweh:
'Look, I will restore the fortunes* of the tents of Jacob, and I will have compassion on his dwellings, and the city will be rebuilt upon its mound, and the citadel fortress will stand on its rightful site. 19 And thanksgiving and the sound of merrymakers will come out from them, and I will make them numerous, and they will not be few. And I will make them honored, and they will not be lowly. 20 And their children will be as of old, and their community will be established ⌊before me⌋.* And I will punish all their oppressors. 21 And their noble will be from them, and their ruler will come out from their midst. And I will bring him near and he will approach me. For who is he that would pledge his heart to approach me?' ⌊declares⌋* Yahweh. 22 'And you will be to me a people, and I will be to you God.'"
