47 and they indeed come to their senses* in the land where they have been carried off captive,+ and they actually return+ and make request+ to you for favor in the land of their captors,+ saying, ‘We have sinned+ and erred,+ we have acted wickedly’;+
9 When YOU will have returned to me+ and kept my commandments+ and done them,+ though YOUR dispersed people should happen to be at the end of the heavens, from there I shall collect+ them and certainly bring them+ to the place that I have chosen to have my name reside there.’+
13 And rip apart YOUR hearts,+ and not YOUR garments;+ and come back to Jehovah YOUR God, for he is gracious and merciful,+ slow to anger+ and abundant in loving-kindness,*+ and he will certainly feel regret on account of the calamity.+
