to be a covenant for the people,(B)
to restore the land,
to make them possess the desolate inheritances,

  1. 60:21 LXX, DSS read his

Announcement of Restoration

11 In that day
I will restore the fallen shelter(A) of David:(B)
I will repair its gaps,
restore its ruins,(C)
and rebuild it as in the days of old,(D)
12 so that they may possess
the remnant of Edom(E)
and all the nations
that bear my name[a](F)
this is the declaration of the Lord; he will do this.

13 Look, the days are coming—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
when the plowman will overtake the reaper(G)
and the one who treads grapes,
the sower of seed.
The mountains will drip with sweet wine,
and all the hills will flow with it.(H)
14 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel.[b](I)
They will rebuild and occupy ruined cities,(J)
plant vineyards and drink their wine,
make gardens and eat their produce.(K)
15 I will plant them on their land,
and they will never again be uprooted
from the land I have given them.(L)
The Lord your God has spoken.
