    (B)and with pleas for mercy I will lead them back,

    (D)in a straight path in which they shall not stumble,
for (E)I am a father to Israel,
    and Ephraim is (F)my firstborn.

10 “Hear the word of the Lord, O nations,
    and declare it in the coastlands far away;
say, ‘He who scattered Israel will (G)gather him,
    and will keep him (H)as a shepherd keeps his flock.’
11 (I)For the Lord has ransomed Jacob
    and has redeemed him from (J)hands too strong for him.
