12 In that day (A)they[a] shall come to you
From Assyria and the [b]fortified cities,
From the [c]fortress to [d]the River,
From sea to sea,
And mountain to mountain.
13 Yet the land shall be desolate
Because of those who dwell in it,
And (B)for the fruit of their deeds.

God Will Forgive Israel

14 Shepherd Your people with Your staff,
The flock of Your heritage,
Who dwell [e]solitarily in a (C)woodland,
In the midst of Carmel;
Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead,
As in days of old.
