11 The day for rebuilding your wallsand extending your borders is coming.
12 When that day comes, your people will come to youfrom Assyria and the cities of Egypt,from Egypt to the Euphrates River,from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 The earth will become a wasteland for those who live on itbecause of what the people living there have done.
14 With your shepherd’s staff, take care of your people,the sheep that belong to you.They live alone in the woods, in fertile pastures.Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead like before.
15 Let us see miracleslike the time you came out of Egypt.
16 Nations will see this and be ashamed in spite of all their strength.They will put their hands over their mouths.Their ears will become deaf.
17 They will lick dust like snakes,like animals that crawl on the ground.They will come out of their hiding places trembling.They will turn away from your presence in fear, O Lord our God.They will be afraid of you.
