12 He will raise a banner for the nations
    and will assemble the dispersed of Israel;
he will gather the scattered people of Judah
    from the corners[a] of the earth.

Israel’s Victory over Its Enemies

13 Ephraim’s jealousy will vanish,[b]
    and those who are hostile to Judah will be eliminated;[c]
Ephraim will no longer be jealous of Judah,
    and Judah will not be hostile to Ephraim.
14 But they[d] will swoop down
    on the slopes[e] of the Philistines to the west,
        and they will plunder[f] the people to[g] the east.
They’ll lay their hands on Edom and Moab,
    and the Ammonites will be subject to them.
