I will give her back her vineyards. I will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope for her. Then she will love me, as she did when she was young. She will love me just as she did when she came up out of Egypt.

她从那里出来，我必赐她葡萄园，又赐她亚割谷作为指望的门。她必在那里应声，与幼年的日子一样，与从埃及地上来的时候相同。”

在那里，我必赐她葡萄园，又赐她亚割谷作为指望的门。她必在那里回应，像在年轻时从埃及地上来的时候一样。

在那里，我必赐她葡萄园，又赐她亚割谷作为指望的门。她必在那里回应，像在年轻时从埃及地上来的时候一样。

我要把葡萄园赐给她，使灾祸之谷成为希望之门。她要在那里快乐地歌唱，如在妙龄时的日子，如从埃及出来之时。”

在那里我要把葡萄园归还给她，使亚割谷变成‘希望之门’。她必在那里回应，像她少年的时候一样，也像她从埃及地上来的那天一般。”

她從那裏出來，我必賜她葡萄園，又賜她亞割谷作為指望的門。她必在那裏應聲，與幼年的日子一樣，與從埃及地上來的時候相同。

我要把葡萄園賜給她，使災禍之谷成為希望之門。她要在那裡快樂地歌唱，如在妙齡時的日子，如從埃及出來之時。」

在那裡我要把葡萄園歸還給她，使亞割谷變成‘希望之門’。她必在那裡回應，像她少年的時候一樣，也像她從埃及地上來的那天一般。”

從那裏我必賜給她葡萄園；我必使搞壞之山谷變為希望之門；在那裏她必應聲、像她幼年日子一般，像她從埃及地上來的時日那樣。

又給以葡萄園、予亞割谷、為冀望之門、在此彼必與我相應、如其幼年之時、出埃及地之日、

又給之以葡萄園、在亞割之谷、望故鄉而作謳歌、與肇邦之日、出自埃及無異。

又在彼賜之以葡萄園、雖在亞割谷、仍有門路可望、在彼必謳歌、與幼年之時、出自伊及之日無異、

There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. There she will respond as in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.

And there I will give her her vineyards and make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. And there she shall answer as in the days of her youth, as at the time when she came out of the land of Egypt.

I will return her vineyards to her and transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope. She will give herself to me there, as she did long ago when she was young, when I freed her from her captivity in Egypt.

There I will give her vineyards back to her and make the Valley of Achor into a gateway of hope. There she will respond as she did in the days of her youth, as in the day she came out of the land of Egypt.

Then I will give her her vineyards from there, And the Valley of Achor as a door of hope. And she will respond there as in the days of her youth, As in the day when she went up from the land of Egypt.

I will give her her vineyards from there, And the Valley of Achor as a door of hope; She shall sing there, As in the days of her youth, As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt.

And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she shall make answer there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

There I will give her vineyards back to her and make the Valley of Achor into a gateway of hope. There she will respond as she did in the days of her youth, as in the day she came out of the land of Egypt.

And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

From there I will give back her vineyards to her, and turn the“ Valley of Trouble” into an“ Opportunity for Hope.” There she will sing as she did when she was young, when she came up from the land of Egypt.

I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will respond there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

“ Go. Announce my message to the people in Jerusalem. I want everyone to hear it. Tell them,“ Here is what the Lord says.“‘ I remember how faithful you were to me when you were young. You loved me as if you were my bride. You followed me through the desert. Nothing had been planted there.

The Lord continues,“ When Israel was a young nation, I loved them. I chose to bring my son out of Egypt.

My people will live there in safety. They will build houses. They will plant vineyards. They will live in safety. I will punish all their neighbors who told lies about them. Then Israel will know that I am the Lord their God.”

“‘ “Later, I was passing by again. I looked at you. I saw that you were old enough for love. So I married you and took good care of you. I covered your naked body. I made a firm promise to you. I entered into a covenant with you. And you became mine,” announces the Lord and King.

You did not remember the days when you were young. At that time you were completely naked. You were kicking around in your blood. But now you have done evil things. I hate them. You have worshiped other gods. You have not been faithful to me.

They placed a large pile of rocks on top of Achan’s body. The place has been called the Valley of Achor ever since. That pile is still there to this day. After the people killed Achan, the Lord was no longer angry with them.

But I will remember my covenant with you. I made it with you when you were young. Now I will make a new covenant with you. It will last forever.

“‘ But suppose you admit that both you and your people who lived before you have sinned. You admit the evil and dishonest things you have done against me. And you admit you have become my enemy.What you did made me become your enemy. I let your enemies take you into their land. But suppose you stop being stubborn. You stop being proud. And you pay for your sin.Then I will remember my covenant with Jacob. I will remember my covenant with Isaac. I will remember my covenant with Abraham. I will remember what I said to them about the land.You will leave the land. It will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies deserted because you are not there. You will pay for your sins because you said no to my laws. You turned away from my rules.But even after all that, I will not say no to you or turn away from you. I will not destroy you completely in the land of your enemies. I will not break my covenant with you. I am the Lord your God.Because of you, I will remember the covenant I made with the people of Israel who lived before you. I brought them out of Egypt to be their God. The nations saw me do it. I am the Lord.’ ”

The Lord who rules over all is the God of Israel. He says,“ Houses, fields and vineyards will again be bought in this land.” ’

When they arrived at Antioch, they gathered the church together. They reported all that God had done through them. They told how he had opened a way for the Gentiles to believe.

My people will build houses and live in them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.

Then the Lord said to me,“ Son of man, these bones stand for all the people of Israel. The people say,‘ Our bones are dried up. We’ve lost all hope. We are destroyed.’So prophesy. Tell them,‘ The Lord and King says,“ My people, I am going to open up your graves. I am going to bring you out of them. I will take you back to the land of Israel.So I will open up your graves and bring you out of them. Then you will know that I am the Lord. You are my people.I will put my Spirit in you. And you will live again. I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I have spoken. I have done it,” announces the Lord.’ ”

Here is the song that Moses and the people of Israel sang to the Lord. They said,“ I will sing to the Lord. He is greatly honored. He has thrown Pharaoh’s horses and chariot drivers into the Red Sea.The Lord gives me strength and protects me. He has saved me. He is my God, I will praise him. He is my father’s God, and I will honor him.The Lord goes into battle. The Lord is his name.He has thrown Pharaoh’s chariots and army into the Red Sea. Pharaoh’s best officers drowned in the sea.The deep waters covered them. They sank to the bottom like a stone.“ Lord, your right hand was majestic and powerful. Lord, your right hand destroyed your enemies.Because of your great majesty, you threw down those who opposed you. Your burning anger blazed out. It burned them up like straw.The powerful blast from your nose piled up the waters. The rushing waters stood firm like a wall. The deep waters stood up in the middle of the sea.“ Your enemies bragged,‘ We will chase Israel and will catch them. We’ll divide up what we take from them. We’ll eat them alive. We’ll pull our swords out. Our powerful hands will destroy them.’But you blew with your breath. The Red Sea covered your enemies. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.“ Lord, who among the gods is like you? Who is like you? You are majestic and holy. Your glory fills me with wonder. You do amazing things.You reach out your right hand. The earth swallows up your enemies.“ Because your love is faithful, you will lead the people you have set free. Because you are so strong, you will guide them to the holy place where you live.The nations will hear about it and tremble. Pain and suffering will take hold of the Philistines.The chiefs of Edom will be terrified. The leaders of Moab will tremble with fear. The people of Canaan will melt away.Fear and terror will fall on them. Your powerful arm will make them as still as a stone. Then your people will pass by, Lord. Then the people you created will pass by.You will bring them in. You will plant them on the mountain you gave them. Lord, you have made that place your home. Lord, your hands have made your holy place secure.“ The Lord rules for ever and ever.”Pharaoh’s horses, chariots and horsemen went into the Red Sea. The Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them. But the people of Israel walked through the sea on dry ground.Aaron’s sister Miriam was a prophet. She took a tambourine in her hand. All the women followed her. They played tambourines and danced.Miriam sang to them,“ Sing to the Lord. He is greatly honored. He has thrown Pharaoh’s horses and chariot drivers into the Red Sea.”

When all that happens, the Lord your God will bless you with great success again. He will be very kind to you. He’ll bring you back from all the nations where he scattered you.Suppose you have been forced to go away to the farthest land on earth. The Lord your God will bring you back even from there.He will bring you to the land that belonged to your people of long ago. You will take it over. He’ll make you better off than your people were. He’ll cause there to be more of you than there were of them.

Then Israel sang a song. They said,“ Spring up, you well! Sing about it.

The Lord says,“ I have been the Lord your God ever since you came out of Egypt. But I will make you live in tents again. That is what you did when you celebrated the Feast of Booths in the desert.

I will bring my people Israel back home. I will bless them with great success again. They will rebuild the destroyed cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink the wine they produce. They will make gardens and eat their fruit.

Return to your place of safety, you prisoners who still have hope. Even now I announce that I will give you back much more than you had before.

I will destroy her vines and her fig trees. She said they were her pay from her lovers. I’ll make them like clumps of bushes and weeds. Wild animals will eat them up.

Then his people believed his promises and sang praise to him.

But here is something else I remember. And it gives me hope.

“ Remember what you told him. You said,‘ If you people are not faithful, I will scatter you among the nations.But if you return to me, I will bring you back. If you obey my commands, I will gather you together again. I will bring you back from the farthest places on earth. I will bring you to the special place where I have chosen to put my Name.’

I’m like a gate. Anyone who enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out. And they will find plenty of food.

Their flocks will eat in the rich grasslands of Sharon. Their herds will rest in the Valley of Achor. That is what I will do for my people who follow me.
