12 God will raise a signal for the nations and gather the outcast men of Israel.God will collect the dispersed women of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 Ephraim’s jealousy will cease,and Judah’s harassment will be eliminated.Ephraim won’t be jealous of Judah,and Judah won’t harass Ephraim.
14 But they will swoop down on the slopes of Philistia to the west;together they will plunder the people to the east.Edom and Moab will be under their power,and the Ammonites will be their subjects.
15 The Lord will split the tongue of the Egyptian sea. God will wave a hand over the Euphrates with a powerful wind and break it into seven streams so that it can be crossed in sandals.
16 Then there will be a highway from Assyria for the survivors of God’s people who are left from Assyria, just as there was for Israel on the day they went up from the land of Egypt.
