A Promise of Restoration

11 On that day I will raise up the fallen house of David,

I will wall up its gaps and raise up its ruins,

I will rebuild it as it was long ago.

12 They will possess again the rest of Edom,

and all the nations which once you ruled for me,

says the Lord, who will do this.

13 Listen! The days are coming, says the Lord,

when the harvest is too big to reap

before it is time to plough,

when the grapes cannot be all trod

before it is time to sow,

when the mountains will run with sweet wine,

and every hill will flow with it.

14 I will bring back my people Israel,

they will rebuild waste cities and inhabit them,

plant vineyards and drink their wine,

make gardens and eat their fruit.

15 I will plant them on their own soil,

and they will never again be uprooted from their land

which I have given them,

says the Lord your God.
