Isaiah 27:6-8

New Century Version

⁶ In the days to come, the people of Jacob will be like a plant with good roots;
    Israel will grow like a plant beginning to bloom.
    Then the world will be filled with their children.

⁷ The Lord has not hurt his people as he hurt their enemies;
    his people have not been killed like those who tried to kill them.
⁸ He will settle his argument with Israel by sending it far away.
    Like a hot desert wind, he will drive it away.
