"Set up road signs; put up guideposts. Take note of the highway, the road that you take. Return, O Virgin Israel, return to your towns.

How long will you wander, O unfaithful daughter? The LORD will create a new thing on earth- a woman will surround ^(F63) a man."

This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: "When I bring them back from captivity, ^(F64) the people in the land of Judah and in its towns will once again use these words: 'The LORD bless you, O righteous dwelling, O sacred mountain.'

People will live together in Judah and all its towns-farmers and those who move about with their flocks.

I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint."

At this I awoke and looked around. My sleep had been pleasant to me.
