20. At my table you will eat until you are full of horses and riders and all kinds of soldiers,’ says the Lord God.
21. “And I will show my greatness among the nations. All the nations will feel my power when I punish them.
22. From that day on the people of Israel will know that I am the Lord their God.
23. And the nations will know Israel was taken away captive because they turned against me. So I turned away from them. And I let their enemies defeat them. All of them died in war.
24. I punished them for their uncleanness and their sins. I turned away from them.
25. “So this is what the Lord God says: Now I will bring the people of Jacob back from captivity. I will have mercy on the whole nation of Israel. I will not let them dishonor me.
26. The people will forget their shame. And they will forget how they rejected me. They will live in safety on their own land. No one will make them afraid.
27. I will bring the people back from other lands. I will gather them from the lands of their enemies. That is how I will show that I am holy through my people. And many nations will see that I am holy.
28. Then my people will know that I am the Lord their God. This is because I sent them into captivity among the nations. But then I brought them back to their own land. And I didn’t leave any behind.
29. I will not turn away from them anymore. I will put my Spirit into the people of Israel, says the Lord God.”
