The LORD’s Plan

“In that day,” declares the LORD,

   “I will gather the lame;
   I will assemble the exiles
   and those I have brought to grief.
I will make the lame my remnant,
   those driven away a strong nation.
The LORD will rule over them in Mount Zion
   from that day and forever.
As for you, watchtower of the flock,
   stronghold^[a] of Daughter Zion,
the former dominion will be restored to you;
   kingship will come to Daughter Jerusalem.”
