9 Though I have scattered them among the nations,yet in far-off places they will remember me.They and their children will surviveand return home together.
10 From Egypt and Assyria I will bring them homeand settle them in their own country.I will settle them in Gilead and Lebanon also;the whole land will be filled with people.
11 When they pass through their sea of trouble,I, the Lord, will strike the waves,and the depths of the Nile will go dry.Proud Assyria will be humbled,and mighty Egypt will lose her power.
12 I will make my people strong;they will worship and obey me.”The Lord has spoken.
