24:031:008 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather
           them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and
           the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with
           child together:  a great company shall return thither.

24:031:009 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I
           lead them:  I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters
           in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble:  for I am a
           father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

24:031:010 Hear the word of the lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the
           isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather
           him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.

24:031:011 For the lord hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the
           hand of him that was stronger than he.

24:031:012 Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and
           shall flow together to the goodness of the lord, for wheat,
           and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and
           of the herd:  and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and
           they shall not sorrow any more at all.

24:031:013 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and
           old together:  for I will turn their mourning into joy, and
           will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.

24:031:014 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and
           my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the lord.

24:031:015 Thus saith the lord; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation,
           and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to
           be comforted for her children, because they were not.

24:031:016 Thus saith the lord; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine
           eyes from tears:  for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the
           lord; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.

24:031:017 And there is hope in thine end, saith the lord, that thy
           children shall come again to their own border.

24:031:018 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast
           chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed
           to the yoke:  turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art
           the lord my God.

24:031:019 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I
           was instructed, I smote upon my thigh:  I was ashamed, yea,
           even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.

24:031:020 Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I
           spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: 
           therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have
           mercy upon him, saith the lord.
