Israel’s Taunt against Babylon

14 When the Lord (A)has compassion on Jacob and again (B)chooses Israel, and settles them on their own land, then (C)strangers will join them and attach themselves to the house of Jacob. The peoples will take them along and bring them to their place, and the (D)house of Israel will make them their own possession in the land of the Lord (E)as male and female servants; and [a]they will take their captors captive and will rule over their oppressors.

10 (A)Foreigners will build up your walls,
And their (B)kings will serve you;
For in My (C)wrath I struck you,
And in My favor I have had compassion on you.
11 Your (D)gates will be open continually;
They will not be closed day or night,
So that people may (E)bring you the wealth of the nations,
With (F)their kings led in procession.
