⁶ For I will set My eyes on them for good, and ^(A)I will bring them back to this land; ^(B)I will build them and not pull them down, and I will plant them and not pluck them up.

²⁸ And it shall come to pass, that as I have ^(A)watched over them ^(B)to pluck up, to break down, to throw down, to destroy, and to afflict, so I will watch over them ^(C)to build and to plant, says the Lord.

⁷ And ^(A)I will cause the captives of Judah and the captives of Israel to return, and will rebuild those places ^(B)as at the first.

³⁶ Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. ^(A)I, the Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it.”
