Zechariah

Zechariah 10:8–10

8I will whistle for them to gather,

for I have redeemed them;

and they will be as numerous

as they once were.

9Though I sow them among the nations,

they will remember Me in distant lands;

they and their children

will live and return.

10I will bring them back from Egypt

and gather them from Assyria.

I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon

until no more room is found for them.
