I will strengthen the house of Judah
and deliver the house of Joseph.[a]
I will restore[b] them
because I have compassion on them,
and they will be
as though I had never rejected them.(A)
For I am the Lord their God,
and I will answer them.
Ephraim(B) will be like a warrior,
and their hearts will be glad as if with wine.
Their children will see it and be glad;(C)
their hearts will rejoice in the Lord.

I will whistle(D) and gather them
because I have redeemed(E) them;
they will be as numerous as they once were.
