24 And there shall no more be an hurting of bitterness to the house of Israel, and a thorn bringing in sorrow on each side, by the compass of them, that be adversaries to them; and they shall know, that I am the Lord God. (And no more shall there be a hurting of bitterness for the house of Israel, and a thorn bringing in sorrow on every side, by those who be their adversaries, all around them; and they shall know, that I am the Lord God.)

25 The Lord God saith these things, When I shall gather together the house of Israel from peoples, among which they be scattered, I shall be hallowed in them before heathen men.

(The Lord God saith these things, When I shall gather together the house of Israel from the peoples, among whom they be scattered, I shall be hallowed, or shall be shown holy, in them before the heathen. And they shall live in their land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.)

26 And they shall dwell secure therein, and they shall build houses, and they shall plant vines, and they shall dwell trustily, when I shall make dooms in all men that be adversaries to them by compass; and they shall know, that I am the Lord God of them. (And they shall live in security there, and they shall build houses, and they shall plant vines, and they shall live with trust, when I shall bring in judgements upon all the people who be their adversaries all around them; and they shall know, that I am the Lord their God.)
