Yahweh Will Rebuild Israel

11 “In that day I will (A)raise up the fallen [a](B)booth of David
And wall up its (C)breaches;
I will also raise up its ruins
And rebuild it as in the (D)ancient days,
12 (E)That they may possess the remnant of (F)Edom
And all the [b]nations who are (G)called by My name,”
Declares Yahweh who does this.

13 “Behold, days are coming,” declares Yahweh,
“When the (H)plowman will overtake the reaper
And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;
When the (I)mountains will drip [c]sweet (J)wine
And all the hills will melt.
