And your descendants will be heir to the nations,

and they will inhabit desolate towns.

And let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations:

Spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

And thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles,

And make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
