6 I wyll comforte the house of Iuda, and preserue the house of Ioseph. I wyll turne them also, for I pitie them: and they shal be lyke as they were, when I had not cast them of. For I the Lorde am their God, and wyll heare them.
7 Ephraim shalbe as a gyaunt, and their hert shalbe chereful as thorow wyne: yee, their children shall se it, and be glad, and their hert shall reioyce in the Lorde.
8 I wyll blowe for them and gather them together, for I wyll redeme them. They shall increace, as they increased afore.
9 I wyll sowe them amonge the people, that they may thyncke vpon me in farre countrees: they shall lyue with their children, & turne agayne.
10 I wyll brynge them agayne also from the lande of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria. I wyll carye them into the lande of Galaad & to Libanus and they shal wante nothinge.
11 He shall go vpon the see of trouble, & smyte the see waues: so that all the depe floudes shalbe dryed vp. The proude boastynge of Assur shalbe cast downe, and the sceptre of Egypte shall be taken awaye.
12 I wyll comforte them in the Lorde, that they maye walke in his name, sayeth the Lorde.
