He will punish you for your unjust acts, but he will also show all of you mercy and gather you together out of all the nations among which you have been scattered.

Bear witness to him, Israelites, in the presence of the nations, because he has scattered you among them,
4
and he has shown you his greatness there. Bring him honor in the presence of everything that lives, because he is our Lord: he himself is our God; he himself is our father, and he is God forever and always.

He will punish you for your unjust acts, but he will also show all of you mercy and gather you together out of all the nations among which you have been scattered.
6
When you turn to him with all your heart and your all being to act sincerely before him, then he will turn to you and never hide his face from you again. And now, look at what he has done for you, and acknowledge him in everything you say. Praise the Lord of righteousness, and exalt the king of the ages! I will acknowledge him in the land where I am a captive and make known his power and greatness to a sinful nation. So turn around, you sinners, and act justly before him. Who knows? Perhaps he will want you back and show you mercy.
7
My soul exalts my God, the king of heaven, and my soul will rejoice all the days of my life.
