10 Hear the word of the Lord, you nations,
And declare it in the (A)coastlands far away,
And say, “He who scattered Israel will (B)gather him,
And He will keep him as a (C)shepherd keeps his flock.”
11 For the Lord has (D)ransomed Jacob
And redeemed him from the hand of him who was (E)stronger than he.
12 “They will (F)come and shout for joy on the (G)height of Zion,
And they will be (H)radiant over the [a]bounty of the Lord
Over the (I)grain, the new wine, the oil,
And over the young of the (J)flock and the herd.
And their life will be like a (K)watered garden,
And they will (L)never languish again.
