18 I will gather the afflicted from the solemn assembly;
    those who were with you,
        who were bearing a burden of disgrace.

19 “Watch how I deal with everyone who oppresses you!
    At that time I will rescue the one who is lame,
        and I will draw to me[a] the one who has been driven away.
I will honor[b] them with praise
    and with a good reputation in every land
        where they have been put to shame.
20 At that time I will gather you;
    at that time I will bring you home.[c]
Indeed, I will give you a good reputation,
    making you praiseworthy among all of the people of the world,
        when I restore your prosperity before your eyes,” says the Lord.
