50:17 Yisrael’s return

17 Israel is like sheep that were scattered and driven away by lions.

Firstly, the Assyrian king devoured its meat,

then after that, the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar chomped on its bones.

18 Therefore Yisrael’s god, Commander-in-chief Yahweh, says this:

Listen, I’m about to punish the Babylonian king and his country,

just as I punished the Assyrian king.

19 Then I’ll restore Yisrael to its homeland—

it will graze on Mt. Carmel and in the Bashan region.

≈ then it will be satisfied in the hill country of Efrayim and Gilead.

20 Yahweh says that at that time,

Yisrael’s disobedience won’t exist

≈ and no wickedness will be found in Yehudah

because I’ll forgive those that I leave as a remnant.
