18 Thus says Adonai, “Indeed,
I will return Jacob’s tents from exile,
and have compassion on his dwellings.
The city will be rebuilt on her mound[a].
The citadel will stand in its rightful place.
19 Out of them will come thanksgiving
and the sound of celebration.
I will multiply them,
so they will not decrease.
I will also honor them,
so they will not be insignificant.
20 His children also will be as formerly
—his community set up before Me—
and I will punish all his oppressors.
21 His noble one will be one of His own.
His ruler will come forth from among His own.
I will bring Him near, and He will approach Me.
For who is he who will pledge his heart to approach Me?”
It is a declaration of Adonai.
22 “So you will be My people,
and I will be your God.”
