6 “In that day,” declares the Lord,

“I will gather the lame;

I will assemble the exiles

and those I have brought to grief.

I will make the lame my remnant,

those driven away a strong nation.

The Lord will rule over them in Mount Zion

from that day and forever.

As for you, watchtower of the flock,

stronghold[a] of Daughter Zion,

the former dominion will be restored to you;

kingship will come to Daughter Jerusalem.”
