Second Return from Diaspora

10 It will also come about in that day
that the root of Jesse will stand
    as a banner for the peoples.[a]
The nations will seek for Him,
and His resting place will be glorious.[b]
11 It will also come about in that day that my Lord will again redeem—a second time with His hand—the remnant of His people who remain[c]
    from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12 He will lift up a banner for the nations,
and assemble the dispersed of Israel,
and gather the scattered of Judah
    from the four corners of the earth.[d]
