God’s People Brought Home

For this is what the Lord says:

Sing with joy for Jacob;
shout for the chief of the nations!
Proclaim, praise, and say,
Lord, save Your people,(A)
the remnant of Israel!”
Watch! I am going to bring them from the northern land.
I will gather them from remote regions of the earth(B)
the blind and the lame will be with them,
along with those who are pregnant and those about to give birth.
They will return here as a great assembly!(C)
They will come weeping,
but I will bring them back with consolation.[a](D)
I will lead them to wadis filled with water
by a smooth way where they will not stumble,(E)
for I am Israel’s Father,
and Ephraim is My firstborn.
