Isaiah 27:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹¹ The vines will become dry, and the branches will break off. Women will use them for firewood.

The people refuse to understand. So God, their Maker, will not comfort them or be kind to them.

¹² At that time the Lord will begin separating his people from others. He will begin at the Euphrates River and will gather his people from there^[a] to the River of Egypt.^[b]

You people of Israel will be gathered together one by one. ¹³ Many of my people are now lost in Assyria. Some of my people have run away to Egypt. But at that time a great trumpet will be blown, and all those people will come back to Jerusalem. They will bow down before the Lord on that holy mountain.
