12Return, you exiles who now have hope;return to your place of safety.Now I tell you that I will repay you twice overwith blessing for all you have suffered.
16When that day comes, the Lord will save his people,as a shepherd saves his flock from danger.They will shine in his landlike the jewels of a crown.
17How good and beautiful the land will be!The young people will grow strong on its grain and wine.
