10 “Nations, listen to this message from the Lord!
    Tell this message in the faraway lands by the sea:
‘God scattered the people of Israel,
    but he will bring them back together.
    And he will watch over his flock like a shepherd.’
11 The Lord will bring Jacob back.
    He will save his people from those who are stronger.
12 The people of Israel will come to the top of Zion,
    and they will shout with joy.
Their faces will shine with happiness about the good things the Lord gives them.
    He will give them grain, new wine, olive oil, young sheep and cattle.
They will be like a garden that has plenty of water.
    And the people of Israel will not be troubled anymore.
