10:6“I (says the Lord) will strengthen the kingdom8 of Judah and deliver the people of Joseph9 and will bring them back10 because of my compassion for them. They will be as though I had never rejected them, for I am the Lord their God and therefore I will hear them.

Footnotes

  1. 8 Heb “the house.”
  2. 9 Or “the kingdom of Israel”; Heb “the house of Joseph.” Joseph is mentioned here instead of the usual Israel (but see 2 Sam 19:20; Ps 78:67; 80:1; 81:5; Ezek 37:16; Amos 5:6, 15; 6:6) because of the exodus motif that follows in vv. 8–11.
  3. 10 The anomalous reading וְחוֹשְׁבוֹתִים (vékhoshévotim) should probably be וַהֲשִׁי בוֹתִם (vahashi votim), the Hiphil perfect consecutive of שׁוּב (shuv), “return” (cf. Jer 12:15).
