10 Listen to the word of the Eternal, you nations of the earth;
    take this story to distant shores and make it known:
The One who scattered Israel will now gather His people
    and watch over His flock as a shepherd.
11 For the Eternal has rescued Jacob
    and redeemed him from people who are too strong for him.
12 The redeemed will return home and shout for joy from the top of Mount Zion;
    they will shine with the sheer goodness of the Eternal—
The harvests of grain, wine, and oil; the healthy flocks and herds.
    Their lives will be like a lush, well-watered garden.
From that day on, they will never know sorrow.

    and redeem(E) them from the hand of those stronger(F) than they.
12 They will come and shout for joy(G) on the heights(H) of Zion;
    they will rejoice in the bounty(I) of the Lord
the grain, the new wine and the olive oil,(J)
    the young of the flocks(K) and herds.
They will be like a well-watered garden,(L)
    and they will sorrow(M) no more.
