10 The fortified city is isolated.
The homestead is left deserted, abandoned like the desert.
Calves will graze there.
They will lie down.
They will feed on the branches.
11 When the branches are dried up,

from the flowing stream of the Euphrates River
to the brook of Egypt.
People of Israel, you will be gathered one by one.
