Erect thee waymarks Set thee up finger-posts, Apply thy heart to The highway - The road by which thou didst depart, - Return O virgin of Israel, Return unto these thy cities.

How long wilt thou turn hither and thither, O apostate daughter? For Yahweh hath created a new thing in the earth, A female defendeth, a strong man!

Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Again, shall they say this word, in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I cause their captivity to return, Yahweh, bless thee, Thou home of righteousness! Thou mountain of holiness!

Then shall there dwell throughout Judah itself and all the cities thereof, together, - Husbandmen, who shall move about with a flock;

For I have satiated the weary soul, - And every languishing soul, have I filled.

Upon this, I awoke and considered, - And, my sleep, had been sweet to me!
