24 Then there’ll no longer be pricking briars and painful thorns for the Israeli people from all those around her who despise her, so then they’ll know that I am the master Yahweh.’

25 The master Yahweh says that when I gather the Jewish people from the nations that they were scattered among, and when I am properly honoured by them so the nations may see, then they’ll make their homes in the land I gave to my servant Yakov (Jacob). 26 Then they’ll live securely within the land and build houses, plant vineyards, and live securely. When I execute justice on all the ones from all around who now despise them, then they’ll know that I am their God Yahweh.’ ”
