7The Ephraimites will be like warriors and will rejoice as if they had drunk wine. Their children will see it and rejoice; they will celebrate in the things of the LORD.
8I will signal for them and gather them, for I have already redeemed them; then they will become as numerous as they were before.
9Though I scatter them among the nations, they will remember in far-off places– they and their children will survive and return.
10I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to the lands of Gilead and Lebanon, and there will not be enough room for them.
