14 You are unfaithful children,
but you belong to me.
    Come home!
I'll take one or two of you
from each town and clan
    and bring you to Zion.
15 Then I'll appoint wise rulers
    who will obey me,
and they will care for you
    like shepherds.

16 You will increase in numbers,
    and there will be no need
to remember the sacred chest
    or to make a new one.[a]
