You will again plant vines
    on the hills in Samaria.
Yes, farmers will plant vines
    and they will eat their fruit.
There will be a time when guards will call out,
    as they watch for danger in the hills of Ephraim.
They will shout, “Let us go up to Zion,
    to worship the Lord our God.” ’[a]

The Lord says this:

‘Sing with joy for Jacob's descendants!
    They are the greatest of all the nations!
Praise the Lord with loud voices!
Say, “Lord, please save your people.
    Save those Israelites who are still alive.”
