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 they properly honour me 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 people all around who now despise them, then they’ll know that I am their god Yahweh.’ ”
