12  ⁱI will make them strong in the Lord,

and ^jthey shall walk in his name,”

declares the Lord.

6  ^r“I will strengthen the house of Judah,

and ^sI will save the house of Joseph.

^tI will bring them back ^ubecause I have compassion on them,

and they shall be as though I had not rejected them,

for ^vI am the Lord their God and I will answer them.
