12 Your people will come back to your land.
    They will come back from Assyria and from the cities of Egypt.
They will come from Egypt
    and from the other side of the Euphrates River.
They will come from the sea in the west
    and from the mountains in the east.

13 The land was ruined by the people
    who lived there and by what they did.
14 So rule your people with your rod.
    Rule the flock of people who belong to you.
That flock lives alone in the woods
    and up on Mount Carmel.
That flock lives in Bashan and Gilead
    as they did in the past.

12 In that day people will come to you
    from Assyria(A) and the cities of Egypt,
even from Egypt to the Euphrates
    and from sea to sea
    and from mountain to mountain.(B)
13 The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants,
    as the result of their deeds.(C)

Prayer and Praise

14 Shepherd(D) your people with your staff,(E)
    the flock of your inheritance,
which lives by itself in a forest,
    in fertile pasturelands.[a](F)
Let them feed in Bashan(G) and Gilead(H)
    as in days long ago.(I)
