Israel Will Be Made Like New Again

11 “The time will come when I will set up
    David’s fallen shelter.
I will repair its broken walls.
    I will rebuild what was destroyed.
    I will make it what it used to be.
12 Then my people will take control of those
    who are left alive in Edom.
They will also possess all the nations
    that belong to me,”
    announces the Lord.
    He will do all these things.

13 “The days are coming,” announces the Lord.

“At that time those who plow the land
    will catch up with those who harvest the crops.
Those who stomp on grapes
    will catch up with those who plant the vines.
Fresh wine will drip from the mountains.
    It will flow down from all the hills.
