15 but, ‘The Lord lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the anorth and from all the lands where He had driven them.’ For bI will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers.
16 “Behold, I will send for many afishermen,” says the Lord, “and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
17 For My aeyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their iniquity hidden from My eyes.
18 And first I will repay adouble for their iniquity and their sin, because bthey have defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.”
19 O Lord, amy strength and my fortress,
bMy refuge in the day of affliction,
The Gentiles shall come to You
From the ends of the earth and say,
“Surely our fathers have inherited lies,
Worthlessness and cunprofitable things.”
