24 “And for the house of Israel ^bthere shall be no more a brier to prick or ^ca thorn to hurt them among all their neighbors ^dwho have treated them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.

26 ^gAnd they shall dwell securely in it, and they shall build houses and plant vineyards. They shall dwell securely, ^hwhen I execute judgments upon all their neighbors ^dwho have treated them with contempt. ^xThen they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
