3 Yah Veh is seen by me in the distance, Yes, I love you with an eternal love: so with lovingkindness I draw you:
4 in building, I build you again, O virgin of Yisra El: adorn you again with your tambourines and you come forth in the round dancing of entertainers:
5 again, you plant vines on the mountains of Shomeron: the planters plant and profane.
6 For there is a day, that the guards call out on the mount Ephrayim, Rise, and we ascend to Siyon to Yah Veh our Elohim.
7 For thus says Yah Veh: Shout with cheerfulness for Yaaqov and resound among the chief of the goyim: hearken, praise, and say, O Yah Veh, save your people, the survivors of Yisra El.
8 Behold, I bring them from the north land, and gather them from the flanks of the land; the blind and the lame the woman with child and she who births together among them: a great congregation returns there:
9 they come with weeping; and with supplications I lead them: I walk them by the wadies of waters in a straight way wherein they falter not: for I am a father to Yisra El and Ephrayim is my firstbirthed.
10 Hear the word of Yah Veh, O you goyim! And tell it in the islands afar off, and say, He who winnows Yisra El gathers him and guards him as a tender to his drove.
11 For Yah Veh redeems Yaaqov - redeems him from the hand stronger than his:
12 and they come and shout in the height of Siyon; and flow together to the goodness of Yah Veh for crop and for juice and for oil and for the sons of the flock and of the herd: and their soul becomes as a saturated garden; and they add not to languish.
