For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.

New English Translation
Once again there will be sounds of joy and gladness and the glad celebrations of brides and grooms. Once again people will bring their thank offerings to the temple of the LORD and will say,“Give thanks to the LORD of Heaven’s Armies. For the LORD is good and his unfailing love lasts forever.” For I, the LORD, affirm that I will restore the land to what it was in days of old.’
