God Promises to Restore the Kingdom

11 “David’s tent[a] has fallen,
    but at that time I will set it up again.
I will fix its holes and repair its ruined parts.
    I will set it up as it was before.
12 Then the people left alive in Edom,
    and all the people called by my name, will look to me for help.”
This is what the Lord said,
    and he will make it happen.
