18 I will gather those who have been driven(A)
from the appointed festivals;
they will be a tribute from you[a]
and a reproach on her.[b]
19 Yes, at that time
I will deal with all who afflict you.
I will save the lame(B) and gather the scattered;(C)
I will make those who were disgraced
throughout the earth
receive praise and fame.
20 At that time I will bring you[c] back,
yes, at the time I will gather you.
I will give you fame and praise
among all the peoples of the earth,
when I restore your fortunes(D) before your eyes.
Yahweh has spoken.
